Wash chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
Place flour on a sheet of waxed paper.
In a small bowl, stir together chili powder, pepper, brown sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, and salt; sprinkle over both sides of chicken. Lightly coat both sides of chicken in flour, shaking off excess. Discard remaining flour.
In a large skillet, heat 1 T. olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in batches, adding oil as needed, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to plate/platter; cover to keep warm.
Place skillet with drippings over medium-high heat. Add stock/broth and wine; stir to scrape up brown bits from bottom of pan. Bring to a boil. Gradually whisk in Beurre Manié until smooth; cook whisking constantly until slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Drizzle over chicken.
