Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 12 ounces button mushrooms
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and sauté them for 6-8 minutes, or until they release their moisture and turn golden brown.
Add the minced garlic to the mushrooms and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir well to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Add the chicken broth to the skillet gradually, whisking to combine and create a smooth sauce. Stir in the heavy cream and add the fresh rosemary sprigs. Simmer the sauce for 5-7 minutes, or until it thickens slightly.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and simmer for 5 minutes to let the flavors combine.
Discard the rosemary sprigs and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve hot.
