  • Recipe Submitted by on

Category: Main Dish, Poultry

 Ingredients List

  • 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lemon
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 fresh garlic clove, minced
  • 3 cups fresh sliced white mushrooms
  • 1 cup sliced crimini mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/3 cup white wine
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley

 Directions

1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with Italian seasoning, thyme, salt and pepper. Brown on both sides with olive oil. Squeeze the lemon juice all over them. Cover with lid and cook over medium heat. Cook until done, turning a few times.

3. In the meantime, in another skillet, melt the 1/4 cup butter or margarine. Add garlic and cook it for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms. Saute until the mushrooms are brown and have exuded their juices, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle with the flour and blend. Add the wine and chicken broth, stirring to make a medium thick sauce. Allow to reduce, adjusting with a little more broth to make a creamy sauce. Add fresh parsley at the last minute. Spoon the sauce over the lemon baked chicken breasts.

Serve warm as is or with a side of rice or vegetables.
