Scale
Chicken
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Mushrooms
- 8 oz button mushrooms, sliced
Cheese
- 1/2 cup grated asiago cheese
Condiments
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
Dairy
- 1 cup heavy cream
Flavorings
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Herbs
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. Chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces and slice the mushrooms. Mince the garlic and finely chop the parsley for garnishing. This will make the cooking process smoother.
- Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken pieces and season them with salt and pepper. Cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté the Mushrooms: In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if necessary, then toss in the sliced mushrooms. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until they are tender and beginning to brown. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Make the Sauce: Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine. Add the Dijon mustard and grated asiago cheese, stirring until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Combine Everything: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to coat it with the creamy asiago mustard sauce. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to warm everything through and meld the flavors.
- Garnish and Serve: Finally, sprinkle the finely chopped parsley over the top before serving. This adds a lovely fresh touch and vibrant color to your dish.
Notes
- Use a heavy skillet for even cooking.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan to ensure even cooking.
- If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of chicken broth or water.
- Let the dish rest after cooking to help the flavors settle.
- Experiment with spices to personalize the flavor.
