Ingredients
- 2 boneless chicken breasts
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Sear the chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then place them in the skillet. Sear until golden brown on both sides, about 5-6 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
- Sauté the mushrooms: In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5 minutes or until they become tender and start to brown. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
- Make it creamy: Lower the heat to medium and pour in the heavy cream. Let it simmer for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
- Return the chicken: Add the chicken back to the skillet, spooning the creamy mixture over the top. Cook for an additional 5 minutes to heat through.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle fresh parsley over the dish before serving. Enjoy with a side of sautéed greens or a mixed salad.
Notes
Don’t rush the searing; it locks in flavors! For added depth, consider a splash of white wine or lemon juice into your cream sauce.
