Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced

Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then set aside.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and heat until shimmering.
  3. Add the chicken breasts to the hot skillet and sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  4. In the same pan, add the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic, cooking until the mushrooms are golden and fragrant.
  5. Pour in the chicken broth and stir to incorporate browned bits from the pan. Then whisk together the heavy cream and Dijon mustard until smooth.
  6. Stir in the grated Asiago cheese and let it melt into the sauce. Return the chicken to the skillet and let simmer for about 5-10 minutes to meld flavors.
  7. Plate the chicken, generously ladle the sauce over, and top with fresh parsley for garnish.

Notes

For an extra kick, add crushed red pepper flakes to the sauce. If the sauce appears lumpy, a good stir will smooth it out. This dish can also be prepared with pork or hearty vegetables for variety.
