Directions
Step 1
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes until softened and lightly browned.

Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet with the mushrooms. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 5
Dice the ham into small cubes and stir it into the skillet with the mushrooms and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
Step 6
Pour in the heavy cream and chicken stock, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Step 7
Add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Step 8
Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, ensuring they’re coated with the sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes to warm through.
Step 9
Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the finished dish. Serve hot with pasta, rice, or crusty bread.
