Equipment
- Large skillet
- Meat mallet
- Mixing bowls
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Chef’s knife
- Cutting board
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless chicken breasts
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 3 Garlic cloves minced
- 1/4 cup Fresh parsley chopped
- 1 cup Mushrooms sliced
- 4 tbsp Butter
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1/2 cup Heavy cream
- To taste Salt and pepper
Instructions
Step 1 – Prepare The Chicken
- Layer two pieces of plastic wrap over the chicken breasts.
- Using a meat mallet, gently pound the chicken to about 1/2 inch thickness.
- Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Cover the chicken in flour and shake off the extra.
- Ensure the chicken is evenly coated but not clumpy!
Step 2 – Cook The Chicken
- On medium-high heat, add the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter to a large skillet.
- Add the chicken and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through.
- Do not put the chicken back in the pan.
Step 3 – Make The Sauce
- In the same skillet, add the remaining butter.
- Sauté the garlic and mushrooms until the mushrooms are golden and the garlic is fragrant.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, deglazing the pan by scraping the browned bits off the bottom.
- After adding the heavy cream, stir it in and let it cook until it gets a little thicker.
- A perfect sauce should coat the back of a spoon.
Step 4 – Combine And Serve
- Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it in the sauce.
- Cook the chicken for 2 to 3 more minutes to heat it all the way through.
- Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
- Butterfly your chicken breasts if they’re particularly thick, to ensure even cooking.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can whisk a teaspoon of flour into the cream before adding it to the skillet.
