Ingredients

  • 3 Chicken Breasts (Cut up in halves)
  • 1 cups Sliced Mushrooms
  • 2 tbsp Minced Garlic
  • 1-2 tbsp Minced Jalapeno Pepper (optional but I love it!)
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese (grated)
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream (use more for more volume)
  • 1 cup Chicken Stock (use more for more volume)
  • 1 handful Chopped Parsley
  • 1 tbsp All-purpose Flour
  • 1 tbsp Unsalted Butter
  • Salt & Pepper

Instructions

  • Start by seasoning your halved Chicken breasts or cutlets with salt and pepper, making sure to season every side of the chicken. 
  • Heat up about 2 tbsp of Olive Oil in a pan, and use it to cook your chicken. Make sure the the pan is hot enough to give a good sear to the chicken. Remember that more color = more flavor. Cook chicken for a total of 7- 8 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove the chicken to a platter and set aside.
  • Melt down 1 tbsp of butter to the same pan and saute your Mushrooms and Onions till your mushrooms are soft and the Onions are fragrant. Season your Mushrooms with Salt and Pepper.
  • Add your garlic and jalapenos to the pan and saute for an additional minute.
  • Add 1 tbsp to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes to cook out the raw flour taste.
  • Add your chicken stock to the pan. Stir and simmer till the sauce begins to thicken.
  • Add your heavy cream and simmer for 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the Parmesan cheese, stirring till the cheese melts down. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add a handful of finely chopped Parsley to the sauce, stirring till properly combined.
  • Return the chicken to the pan and let simmer for 2- 3 minutes, basting the chicken as you go. 
  • Serve hot with a side of steamed rice, pasta, noodles, veggies, or eat as is. Enjoy!
