Cream Of Mushroom Chicken Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken

   Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

2. 2

   Sear the Chicken

   In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.

3. 3

   Cook the Vegetables

   In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent. Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and have released their moisture.

4. 4

   Make the Sauce

   Pour in the chicken broth and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, then add the heavy cream and thyme. Stir well to combine and allow to simmer for another 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

5. 5

   Combine Chicken and Sauce

   Return the seared chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Allow chicken to simmer in the sauce for 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.

6. 6

   Finish and Serve

   Remove from heat and stir in grated Parmesan cheese until melted and combined. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
