Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 8 ounces Baby Bella mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 0.75 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts generously with salt, black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning on both sides.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and sear for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced Baby Bella mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their moisture and turn tender.
Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and the remaining 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning. Allow the sauce to thicken slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
Return the seared chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the creamy mushroom sauce. Spoon some sauce over the chicken and let simmer for 7-8 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reads 165°F (74°C).
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve hot. This dish pairs beautifully with pasta, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
