In a larger skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat and add chicken.  Cook on both sides until brown, about 6-8 minutes.  Remove chicken and set aside.

Add the shallots and garlic to the skillet and cook on low until soft, about 5 minutes.

Pour the sauce over the chicken, add the wine, remaining broth, salt and pepper.

Cover and simmer for about 20 minutes until tender
