Description
A rich and flavorful dish featuring chicken and mushrooms in a creamy sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large chicken breasts
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Flour for dredging
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 12 ounces mushrooms (cremini or white) sliced
- 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup heavy/whipping cream
Instructions
- Cut your chicken breasts in half lengthwise to make four thinner cutlets. Season them with salt & pepper then coat them in flour.
- Add the oil to a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the pan’s hot, add the chicken. Cook it for 4-5 minutes per side until golden. Take the chicken out of the pan and set it aside.
- Add the butter to the pan. Let it melt, then add the mushrooms and Italian seasoning. Cook the mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until the water has been released and cooked off, and they get a nice sear.
- Take the mushrooms out of the pan.
- Add the garlic, chicken broth, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard to the pan. Stir until the mustard dissolves, and let it reduce by half (about 3-4 minutes).
- Add the cream to the pan, along with the chicken and mushrooms. Let the chicken cook for another 5 minutes until it’s cooked through and the sauce has thickened. Season with salt & pepper as needed.
Notes
- Serve with pasta or rice for a complete meal.
