Chicken
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts pounded to an even thickness
Mushrooms
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms sliced
Vegetables
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
Liquids
  • 1 cup dry white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc
  • 1 cup chicken broth
Herbs and Spices
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper to taste
Fats
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Method
 

Cook Chicken
  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add to the skillet. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Sauté Vegetables
  1. In the same skillet, add butter and let it melt. Add chopped onion and garlic, sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Add Mushrooms
  1. Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes until they are browned and tender.
Deglaze and Simmer

Combine and Serve
  1. Return the chicken to the skillet and coat with the sauce. Let it heat through for 2-3 minutes. Serve hot.
