Method

Preparation of Chicken

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

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

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Add the seasoned chicken medallions to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Preparation of Vegetables

  1. 4

    In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently until they are golden brown and caramelized.

    Sauté the Mushrooms

    Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet with the onions and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and browned.

Making the Sauce

  1. 6

    Prepare the Garlic Butter Sauce

    Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Then pour in the chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to incorporate all the flavors.

  2. 7

    Add Cream and Butter

    Stir in the heavy cream and butter, and allow the sauce to simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.

  3. 8

    Finish with Parsley

    Stir in the chopped fresh parsley and season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.

    Combine Chicken and Sauce

    Return the cooked chicken medallions to the skillet and coat them in the garlic butter sauce. Allow to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
