  • Prep: 10 mins
  • Cook: 20 mins
  • Yields: 4 Servings

Ingredients

2 large chicken breasts cut in half lengthwise

flour for dredging

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 tablespoons butter, divided

12 ounces baby bella mushrooms, sliced

1 dash Italian seasoning

3 cloves garlic, minced

½ cup chicken broth

½ teaspoon lemon juice

½ teaspoon Dijon mustard

1 cup heavy whipping cream

salt & pepper to taste

Directions

1Cut your chicken breasts in half lengthwise to make four thinner cutlets. Coat them in flour.


2Add the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter to a skillet over medium-high heat.


3Once the pan's hot, add the chicken. Cook it for 4 - 5 minutes per side until golden. Once this step is done, take the chicken out of the pan and set it aside.


4Chop the mushrooms while cooking the chicken. 


5Add the remaining butter to the pan. Let it melt, then add the mushrooms and Italian seasoning. 


6Once the mushrooms start to release water, add the garlic to the pan. Continue cooking the mushrooms until all the water is cooked off. 


7Take the mushrooms out of the pan. 


8Add the chicken broth, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard to the pan. Give it a good stir until the mustard dissolves, and let it reduce for 3 - 4 minutes. 


9Add the cream to the pan, along with the chicken and mushrooms. Let the chicken cook for another 5 minutes or so until it's cooked through and the sauce has thickened a bit. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
