Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 300 grams mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Begin by seasoning the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and no longer pink inside. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Step 3
Using the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute or until fragrant.
Step 4
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and golden brown.
Step 5
Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth. Stir in the fresh thyme leaves. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Step 6
Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, laying them in the creamy mushroom sauce. Spoon some of the sauce over the chicken to coat it well.
Step 7
Allow the chicken to heat through for about 3-4 minutes, ensuring it's warm and well-coated in the sauce.
Step 8
Garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Step 9
Serve hot with a side of your favorite low-carb vegetables.
