Sautéed Chicken with Mushrooms
Description
Sautéed Chicken with Mushrooms features chicken breasts seasoned and dusted with flour, then browned in olive oil for a crisp exterior. Button mushrooms and dried thyme cook in the same skillet, releasing their earthiness and absorbing olive oil flavor. Adding vegetable broth and reducing it intensifies the taste and creates a light sauce. Returning the chicken to the skillet lets it soak up the mushroom sauce and stay juicy.
The dish pairs well with simple sides like steamed vegetables or rice to balance the rich mushroom topping. It’s a versatile option suitable for an everyday dinner.
Leftovers should be stored in an airtight container and can keep up to three days refrigerated. Reheat gently to maintain moisture and avoid drying the chicken.
Ingredients
- 4 6 ounces chicken breast
- salt
- black pepper
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon thyme dried
- 1 pound button mushrooms trimmed and quartered
- ½ cup vegetable broth low sodium
- ¼ cup parsley chopped
Instructions
- Place flour in a shallow dish. Season chicken with salt and pepper, then coat with flour, shaking off excess.
- In a large skillet, heat oil and 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high. In batches, cook chicken until browned and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and tent loosely with foil.
- Reduce heat to medium, add thyme, mushrooms, and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and cook until softened, 6 minutes.
- Add broth and cook, stirring, until reduced by half, 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Return chicken to pan along with any accumulated juices; top with parsley.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
