Ingredients
- 4 pieces (4 ounces each) Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 teaspoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 16 ounces White mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup Chicken broth, reduced-sodium
- 0.5 cup Dry white wine
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Season the chicken breasts with 0.5 teaspoons of salt and 0.25 teaspoons of black pepper.
Step 3
Add the seasoned chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the remaining teaspoon of olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for 1 minute or until fragrant.
Step 5
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and browned.
Step 6
Pour in the chicken broth and dry white wine. Scrape the bottom of the skillet to deglaze and incorporate any browned bits.
Step 7
Stir in the thyme leaves and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Step 8
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet. Cover and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Step 9
Taste and adjust the seasoning with the remaining salt and pepper if needed.
Step 10
Sprinkle with fresh parsley (optional) for garnish, and serve the chicken and mushrooms hot.
