Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Directions

  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  3. Dredge the chicken breasts in flour, shaking off any excess.
  4. Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  5. In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their liquid and start to brown, about 5 minutes.
  6. Pour in the white wine and simmer for 2 minutes, scraping the bottom of the skillet to loosen any browned bits.
  7. Add the chicken broth, heavy cream, dried thyme, dried oregano, and garlic powder to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
  8. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and bring the sauce to a simmer.
  9. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
  10. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the chicken and sauce. Continue cooking for 2-3 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
  11. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
