Creamy Garlic Chicken

Creamy Garlic Chicken

INGREDIENTS

• 1 boneless chicken breasts
• 1 tablespoons olive oil
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoons butter
• 3/4 cups sliced small mushrooms (I prefer baby portobello)
• 1/2 small onion, sliced
• 1 clove garlic, minced (1 ½ teaspoons bottled minced)
• 1 tablespoons flour
• 1/2 cups chicken broth
• 1/4 cup heavy cream, half and half or whole milk
• 1/2 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary (1/4 teaspoon dried)

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat a large skillet over medium heat then add in the olive oil. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper to taste and add to heated skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. Remove from the skillet and set aside loosely covered with foil to keep warm.

To the same skillet add the tablespoon of butter along with the mushrooms and onions. Cook and stir occasionally for about 5-7 minutes or until browned to your liking. Add in the garlic and cook until fragrant 1-2 minutes.

Stir in the flour and then the broth, cream and rosemary. Stir well to combine and scrape up all the browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Return the chicken to the pan and gently simmer for 2-3 minutes just to reheat.
