Ingredients
- 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts , cut horizontally to make 4 chicken fillets
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup finely chopped yellow onion
- 2 cloves garlic , minced
- 10 ounces white button or cremini mushrooms (or mushrooms of choice)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons dried and ground porcini mushrooms
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried
- 1/4 cup dry white wine , sauvignon blanc, chardonnay, etc (can substitute more chicken broth)
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup good chicken broth
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, tarragon or chives
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 4-6 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through (internal temperature should be 165°F/75°C). Transfer to a plate and tend with foil.
- Prepare the Creamy Mushroom Sauce: Add more butter if needed to the skillet and increase the temperature to medium-high heat. Cook the onions until soft and translucent, 4-5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another minute.Add the mushrooms, dried ground porcini mushrooms and thyme and cook another 5-6 minutes until the mushrooms have released their juices and are golden. Add the wine and boil for 1 minute.Add the flour and cook for two minutes (this will cook off the flour flavor). Add the chicken broth, salt and pepper and bring to a boil, stirring constantly until thickened.Add the cream, bring it to a simmer, reduce the heat, and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. Add the Parmesan cheese and parsley, tarragon or chives (or reserve to sprinkle on as garnish after the chicken and sauce is plated) and stir until dissolved and incorporated. If you'd like it thicker, simmer a little longer. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the chicken breasts on each plate and spoon some of the creamy mushroom sauce over. Serve the chicken with creamy mushroom sauce with your favorite carb and/or vegetable (see blog post above for ideas).
