Sure, here’s a simple recipe for skillet chicken with mushroom wine sauce:
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side or until browned and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if needed. Add sliced mushrooms and cook until they are browned and tender.
- Add minced garlic to the mushrooms and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Allow the wine to simmer and reduce by half.
- Add chicken broth and dried thyme to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for another 5 minutes.
- Stir in the butter to the sauce, allowing it to melt and create a smooth texture.
- Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet and simmer for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the chicken to soak up some of the flavorful sauce.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
