Chicken In Wine Sauce

What to do when I don't have anything in the fridge to cook?

-defrost chicken (previously bought on sale) from freezer
-1/2 bag left over baby carrots (sick of snacking on them)
-1 medium white onion diced
-1/2 bottle of merlot already open from earlier this week

heat pan with olive oil
dice garlic, onion and toss into pan
slice chicken into stir fry pieces for quick cooking
add wine, salt, pepper, parsley (or whatever other herbs you want-i used a pre mixed poultry seasoning)

cook until well done (about 20min, I used a lid to cover and cook faster) the wine should deglaze a bit and thicken the sauce with time. voila!
serve with a leaf lettuce (also trying to eat up some mixed salad greens)
and some edamame (rescued from freezer before freezer burn makes them worthless)
