Equipment
- Large Skillet (I prefer cast-iron, it goes from stove/oven to table)
Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded to even thickness
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 8 ounces mushrooms sliced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
For the Buttered Noodles:
- 8 ounces noodles
- 2 Tablespoons Butter
Toppings:
- Fresh parsley chopped for garnish
- Grated Parmesan cheese for garnish
Instructions
- Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook until they begin to brown and release their juices, about 5 minutes.
- Add garlic, thyme, and oregano, and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
- Pour in chicken broth to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits. Bring to a simmer and reduce the liquid by half, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in heavy cream and bring to a simmer again. Cook until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and warm through in the sauce.
- Serve the chicken over buttered noodles, garnished with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese.
