Creamy Mushroom Chicken

Rich yet beautifully balanced, our Creamy Mushroom Chicken combines golden pan-seared chicken breasts with tender mushrooms, garlic, herbs, and a silky cream sauce.
A touch of Anibal Heritage Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil helps create a beautifully golden exterior on the chicken, while mushrooms and herbs give the sauce its deep savory character.

Ingredients:

• 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 tbsp Anibal Heritage Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• ¼ cup all-purpose flour
• 300 g mushrooms, sliced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• ¾ cup low-sodium chicken stock
• 1 cup heavy cream
• ½ cup finely grated Parmesan
• 1 tbsp butter
• Fresh thyme
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• Fresh parsley, for serving

Instructions:

1. Slice each chicken breast horizontally to create thinner pieces. Season with salt and pepper and dust lightly with flour.
2. Heat Anibal Heritage olive oil in a large skillet and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through. Remove and keep warm.
3. Add the butter and mushrooms to the same skillet and cook until golden.
4. Add the garlic and fresh thyme and cook briefly until fragrant.
5. Pour in the chicken stock and allow it to reduce slightly.
6. Stir in the cream and Parmesan until the sauce becomes smooth and lightly thickened.
7. Return the chicken to the skillet and coat it generously with the mushroom sauce.
8. Finish with fresh thyme or parsley and serve warm.
