Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 cups Cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. When the oil is hot, sear the chicken breasts for 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and golden.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, heavy cream, and chicken broth until smooth.

Step 5

Pour the honey mustard mixture into the skillet with the mushrooms and stir to combine. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer.

Step 6

Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Spoon some sauce over the chicken, cover the skillet, and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 7

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed by adding more salt or pepper.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish the dish with fresh parsley, if desired.

Step 9

Serve the mushroom chicken with honey mustard sauce over rice, mashed potatoes, or alongside steamed vegetables.
