LATELY we have been cutting down on red meat and eating more chicken.  It is so versatile and I have many recipes.  This one was new to me and I thought I would give it a go because we have quite a lot of sage in the garden.  I was very pleased with the results.

2 tablespoons of milk
¼ cup rice flour or other flour
4 chicken breasts
40 grams of butter

½ cup of white wine
