Ingredients

  • 2 large chicken breasts
  • Salt & pepper, to taste
  • Flour (for dredging)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 12 ounces cremini or white mushrooms, sliced
  • ¼ tsp Italian seasoning
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • ½ tsp lemon juice
  • ½ tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions 

Prepare the Chicken:

  • Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create four thinner cutlets.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then lightly coat with flour.

Sear the Chicken:

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Sauté until mushrooms release their moisture and develop a golden sear. Remove and set aside with the chicken.

Make the Sauce:

  • Add garlic, chicken broth, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard to the pan. Stir to combine.
  • Simmer for about 3–4 minutes until the liquid reduces by half.

Combine & Finish:

  • Pour in the heavy cream and return the chicken and mushrooms to the pan.
  • Simmer for about 5 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce thickens.
  • Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
