Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 cups Portabella mushrooms, sliced
• 1 cup Canned artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
• 2 pieces Shallots, finely chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.5 cup Dry white wine
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter. Add the sliced portabella mushrooms and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and begin to brown.

Step 5

Add the shallots and garlic to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

Step 6

Pour in the white wine, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze. Let it simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.

Step 7

Add the chicken broth, heavy cream, and fresh thyme to the skillet. Stir to combine.

Step 8

Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and add the artichoke hearts. Spoon some of the sauce over the chicken.

Step 9

Lower the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).

Step 10

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 11

Serve the chicken breasts topped with the creamy sauce, mushrooms, and artichokes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Pair with a side of roasted potatoes, rice, or crusty bread.
