Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 300 grams mushrooms, sliced
• 100 milliliters white wine
• 200 milliliters chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon Greek oregano
• 1 teaspoon thyme, dried
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 100 grams crumbled feta cheese
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Lower the heat to medium and sauté the chopped onion until translucent, about 3 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their water and begin to brown, about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Deglaze the pan by pouring in the white wine. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Simmer for 2 minutes to allow the alcohol to cook off.

Step 7

Pour in the chicken broth, then stir in the oregano, thyme, and lemon juice. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and spoon some of the sauce over them.

Step 8

Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the chicken cook for 15-18 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Step 9

Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the chicken and mushrooms, then cover and cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow the cheese to slightly melt.

Step 10

Remove from heat, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot with a side of rice, orzo, or crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
