Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 8 oz mushrooms sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 0.5 cup chicken broth
  • 0.5 cup grated parmesan
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp salt

Method
 

  1. Season chicken with salt and sear in olive oil over medium-high, 5 minutes per side, then set aside.
  2. In the same pan, cook the mushrooms until browned, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds, then pour in broth and cream.
  4. Stir in parmesan and simmer until the sauce thickens, about 3 minutes.
  5. Return the chicken to the pan, spoon sauce over, and warm through before portioning.

Notes

A splash of broth when reheating loosens the sauce right back up.
