Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Method
 

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then sear them for 6-7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms are tender.
  3. Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream. Stir in Parmesan cheese, bringing the sauce to a simmer. Let it cook for 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  4. Return the chicken to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the chicken to absorb the flavors.
  5. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve.

Notes

  • For a lighter version, substitute half-and-half for the heavy cream.
  • Can be served over pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
