Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 cup Sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 1.5 cups Fresh mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and sear for 5-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and add butter to the skillet.
Once the butter melts, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender and slightly golden.
Stir in the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes.
Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze any browned bits.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese and dried Italian seasoning. Stir well until the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened, about 3-5 minutes.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to warm the chicken and allow the flavors to meld.
Sprinkle fresh parsley over the dish before serving.
Serve hot with your choice of sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta.
