02 Step

Place chicken breasts in the skillet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Sear for approximately 5-7 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part should register 165°F (74°C). (14 minutes)
03 Step

Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside. Drain any excess oil from the skillet.
04 Step

Sprinkle the paprika and brown sugar evenly over the bottom of the skillet. Stir to combine. (1 minute)
05 Step

Pour in the red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced and thickened slightly. (10 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them in the red wine sauce. Cover the skillet and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, basting the chicken occasionally with the sauce, until the chicken is infused with flavor and very tender. (20 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View
Season the sauce with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve immediately, spooning the luscious red wine sauce over the chicken.
For a richer flavor, consider using bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts. Adjust cooking time accordingly.
If the red wine sauce becomes too thick, add a splash of chicken broth or water to thin it out.
Serve with mashed potatoes, creamy polenta, or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
