Ingredients

  • 2   boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (4-6 oz/125-175 g each)
  •  Salt and ground black pepper
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) olive oil
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) butter
  • 1 cup (250 mL) sliced mushrooms
  • 1   medium shallot, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup (50 mL) dry white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc
  • 3 tbsp (45 mL) heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) chopped fresh parsley

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Season chicken with salt and black pepper. Dredge chicken in flour, shaking off excess; set aside. Heat oil and butter in (8-in./20-cm) Sauté Pan over medium heat 1-2 minutes or until butter is foamy. Place chicken in pan; cook undisturbed 3-4 minutes or until golden brown. Turn chicken over; place pan in oven and bake 8-10 minutes or until internal temperature reads 170°F (76°C) in thickest part of breast. Remove pan from oven with oven mitts. Remove chicken from Sauté Pan; tent with foil.

  2. Holding handle with oven mitt, return pan to stovetop. Add mushrooms and shallot; cook over medium heat 2-3 minutes or until shallot is fragrant. Add wine and simmer until liquid is reduced by half (about 1-2 minutes). Add cream and parsley; simmer an additional 1-2 minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened. Season to taste with additional salt and black pepper. Slice chicken on a bias; serve with sauce.
