1/4 cup (50 mL) all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp (2 mL) dried rosemary, crushed
1/4 tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tbsp (25 mL) butter
1 cup (250 mL) chicken stock

In resealable plastic bag or on plate, combine flour, rosemary, salt and pepper; add chicken and shake or turn to coat. Reserve any remaining flour mixture.
In large shallow Dutch oven, melt butter over medium heat; brown chicken, about 6 minutes per side. Transfer to plate.
