Tender Chicken Breast in a Rich Garlic Mushroom Cream
Recipe Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
300 grams fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup chicken broth (halal certified)
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions:
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 5 minutes on each side, until golden brown and nearly cooked through. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until the onion is translucent.
Add the mushrooms and thyme, and continue to cook for 5-7 minutes, until the mushrooms are soft and browned.
Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat and let simmer for 10 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the breasts. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, until the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
