Put the cut up chicken breasts in a plastic bag or container with a lid. Pour the marinade over the chicken and stir to coat (or smush around in the plastic bag). Allow to marinate for at least 20 minutes, but preferably for 2-24 hours (you can skip this if you're in a hurry or didn't plan ahead).

Heat a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat until very hot (this may take a few minutes if you are using cast iron, or only about 30 seconds to a minute if using another material).

Add the chicken to the skillet and spread out in an even layer. Cook without disturbing for about 5 minutes. Then, flip and cook on the other side for about 5 more minute, or until chicken is completely cooked (the internal temperature should be 165 degrees F, or cut into a piece to make sure it's not pink anymore).

Pour in the white wine (1/4 cup) and deglaze the bottom of the skillet, using a spatula or wooden spoon to loosen all the stuck-on browned bits while coating the chicken in them. Continue sautéing until most of the wine has evaporated and the chicken is coated in the deglazed drippings. Serve.
