Answer 2

1. Good white wine that you would drink
2. Flour to make a rough
3. Chicken stock,
4. Herbs, and white pepper.
Lastly get it to the right consistancy and than add salt to taste.

1. Good White wine that you are serving with your meal
2. Onions- finley chopped
3. Minced Garlic
4. Fresh Herbs ( Tyme, Saage, or else Parsley)
5. Good white wine vinegar or else fresh Lemon juice (1/2 a lemon - squeezed)
6. Some Chicken Stock
7. White pepper,
Let the mixture reduce to 1/4 of what you started with, at the end once it has reached the consistancy you want, than add the salt so that it does not become to salty.

Answer 3

The first thing is a quality DRY white wine that you would drink. Not that cooking wine they sell in the supermarket. It has salt added to it.
Some basic aromatics, like onions and garlic. A couple dairy products, like butter and either heavy cream/half & half or whole milk will do. Some people like to use flour to thicken it up by starting a roux (butter and flour cooked together). Its a matter of preference really.
What I like to do is to brown whatever protein I'm cooking. If its something like chicken breast I may add it back to the sauce to finish the cooking. If its quarters, it may need to be finished off in the oven.
Remove from the pan, and add the onions and garlic. I sometimes add some other vegetables, like mushrooms or fennel. As soon as they're cooked to your liking, you raise the heat to high and add the wine. You want to cook off the alcohol and reduce it too enhance the flavor. At this point you want to scrape the little brown bits of flavor at the bottom of the pan.
To finish it off add some butter, cream and season with salt and pepper. You can also add some herbs at this point since your done. Parsley, chives, thyme or whatever you have on hand.
