Chicken Breasts with Mushroom Cream Sauce

• porsjoner: 2 servings
• total tid: 30 minutes

Ingredienser

2 5-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts, trimmed and tenders removed (see Tip)

½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper

¼ teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon canola oil

1 medium shallot, minced

1 cup thinly sliced shiitake mushroom caps

2 tablespoons dry vermouth, or dry white wine

¼ cup reduced-sodium chicken broth

2 tablespoons heavy cream

2 tablespoons minced fresh chives, or scallion greens

Fremgangsmåte

Season chicken with pepper and salt on both sides.

Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning once or twice and adjusting the heat to prevent burning, until brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165 degrees F, 12 to 16 minutes. Transfer to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.

Add shallot to the pan and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 2 minutes. Pour in vermouth (or wine); simmer until almost evaporated, scraping up any browned bits, about 1 minute. Pour in broth and cook until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in cream and chives (or scallions); return to a simmer. Return the chicken to the pan, turn to coat with sauce and cook until heated through, about 1 minute.
