Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp pepper
For the sauce
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 250 g (½lb) mushrooms sliced
- 3 garlic cloves crushed
- 2 tsp thyme leaves
- pinch chilli flakes
- 1 cup cream
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts on a chopping board and cover with parchment paper or plastic wrap.
- Gently flatten out the chicken with a meat mallet (I just use a rolling pin), until approximately 1cm thick.
- Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Cook the chicken in a hot pan for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add a splash of oil and add the mushrooms.
- Cook until golden brown. Add the garlic, thyme and chilli flakes and cook until fragrant.
- Pour in the cream and lemon juice then allow to simmer for 5 minutes. Season to taste and add the Parmesan.
- Add the chicken back into the pan and allow to simmer for another 3-5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
- Serve with your choice of side dishes.
