Garlic Mushroom Chicken
Share
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms (button or cremini)
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup white wine (optional)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh dill or parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of EVOO in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of EVOO. Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and have released their juices.
- Add the chicken broth, white wine (if using), and lemon juice to the skillet. Stir to combine, and let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to reduce slightly.
- Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some of the mushroom sauce over the chicken. Let the chicken heat through for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Garnish with chopped fresh dill or parsley before serving.
