Ingredients
  

Chicken and Seasoning
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts pounded to an even thickness
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for cooking
Sauce Ingredients
  • 1 cup mushrooms sliced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup dry sherry or white wine
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon parsley chopped for garnish

Method
 

Prepare the Chicken
  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Sauce
  1. In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are soft, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the sherry and let it simmer for 2 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from the skillet.
  4. Stir in the chicken broth and heavy cream, and bring to a gentle simmer. Add thyme and cook for another 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Combine and Serve
  1. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  2. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
