Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breast
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 250 grams Mushrooms
- 1 teaspoon Thyme
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Parsley
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms and thyme to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until the mushrooms are golden and tender.
Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes until it starts to thicken.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, and spoon the sauce over them. Let everything simmer together for another 5 minutes.
Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Serve hot with a side of rice or mashed potatoes.
