2 tbsps. (30 mL) flour
1 tsp. (5 mL) dried rosemary leaves
3/4 cup (150 mL) dry white table wine

Heat oven to 300 F
1. Heat butter in heavy skillet that can go into the oven.
2. Wash chicken pieces. Dry on paper towels. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.

tender, turning pieces for last 15 minutes.
