Ingredients
  

  • 2 large Chicken Breasts
  • to taste Salt & Pepper
  • ½ cup Flour
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 12 ounces Mushrooms (cremini or white, sliced)
  • ¼ teaspoon Italian Seasoning
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • ½ cup Chicken Broth
  • ½ teaspoon Lemon Juice
  • ½ teaspoon Dijon Mustard
  • 1 cup Heavy/Whipping Cream

Instructions
 

  • Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create four thinner cutlets. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge each piece in flour.
  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken cutlets for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove chicken and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add the butter, let it melt, then add the sliced mushrooms and Italian seasoning. Cook until mushrooms release moisture and become seared, about 4-5 minutes. Remove mushrooms and set aside.
  • In the same pan, add minced garlic, chicken broth, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard. Stir until the mustard dissolves. Allow to reduce by half for about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add heavy cream to the pan and stir. Return cooked chicken and mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and sauce has thickened. Season to taste.

Notes

  • Don't skip seasoning the chicken.
  • Adjust sauce thickness if needed.
  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Let chicken rest before serving.
