Ingredients
4 Servings
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 chicken breasts
- 240 milliliters chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 3 cloves garlic
- 120 milliliters heavy cream
- 120 milliliters Madeira wine
- 200 grams mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons parsley
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons water
Directions
Step 1
Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic. Sauté until the mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Add Madeira wine to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the wine to reduce slightly.
Step 5
Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Step 6
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the skillet and cook until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
Step 7
Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat the chicken through.
Step 8
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
