A delightful dish combining tender chicken with a creamy mushroom and white wine sauce, perfect for a cozy dinner.
Pat the chicken breasts dry and coat them evenly with the flour, seasoning with salt and pepper.
Ensure the chicken is evenly coated for a nice crust when cooked.
Heat half of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden on both sides. Remove and set aside.
Don't overcrowd the skillet to ensure even browning.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and sauté the onions, garlic, and mushrooms until softened and fragrant.
Stir frequently to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.
Deglaze the skillet with the white wine and lemon juice, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
This step adds depth of flavor to the sauce.
Return the chicken to the skillet and add the heavy cream and chicken broth. Simmer until the sauce thickens and the chicken is cooked through.
Stir occasionally to prevent the sauce from sticking to the skillet.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm over your choice of pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes.
Chop the parsley finely for a fresh and vibrant garnish.
