Heat butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Wait until the butter is fully melted and slightly bubbly.
Cook the chicken until golden brown on both sides and fully cooked through.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet for even cooking.
Remove the chicken and keep warm.
Cover with foil to retain heat.
Sauté shallot and garlic in the same skillet.

Simmer gently to meld the flavors.
Return the chicken to the skillet and coat with the sauce.
Turn the chicken occasionally for even coating.
