Notes
You can use whatever combination of herbs. I love the addition of chives at the end for that little hit of onion flavor without being so strong.
I leave that extra tablespoon of butter at the end as optional because it can seem off-putting to some to have that much butter. But you’re building a sauce and butter is what can bring that really rich feeling.
You could use regular boneless skinless chicken breast, just increase cooking time.
