Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3/4 cup chicken broth or Marsala wine
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • to garnish fresh parsley, chopped

Equipment

  • Large skillet or frying pan
  • Plastic wrap for pounding chicken
  • Tongs or spatula
  • Wooden spoon for stirring
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to an even thickness, then season with salt and pepper.
  2. Dredge each chicken piece in flour, shaking off excess.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, then add the floured chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown.
  4. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
  5. In the same skillet, add remaining butter and olive oil, then sauté sliced mushrooms for 4-5 minutes until they soften.
  6. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute, stirring constantly.
  7. Pour in chicken broth, scraping up browned bits, and let simmer for a few minutes to reduce.
  8. Stir in heavy cream, bring to a gentle simmer, then return the cooked chicken to the skillet, spooning sauce over it.
  9. Simmer for 2-3 more minutes until heated through and sauce thickens.
  10. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve.

Notes

For a lighter version, swap chicken broth for vegetable broth or use almond milk instead of heavy cream. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat gently when serving. Fresh parsley adds brightness to the dish, so don't skip it!
