Shallot & Chardonnay Chicken with Basmati rice and Peas

This was a very simple idea to cook simply because you need very little items. The Chardonnay pretty much does most of the work depending on what you are going for. I sauteed the shallots and garlic a little in the pan then added the wine, once it is heated add the chicken and it take care of itself. Chardonnay is a good wine to pair with chicken because it will not over power the chicken but ends up working with the chicken harmoniously. The shallots add there own flavor along with the wine that both get picked up by the chicken. As a compliment to finish the dish I have always eaten Basmati rice. It wasn't till college that I had to start experimenting with other rices, and began to understand the differences. Basmati rice in this case gives a nice fluffy taste the the meal that blends in very nicely with the other lite textures of the meal.
