Chicken Medallions with Creamy Mushroom Sauce
Tender chicken medallions served with a creamy mushroom sauce, creating a gourmet-inspired dish that's easy to prepare.
Equipment
- Skillet or frying pan
- meat mallet
- cooking thermometer
Ingredients
- boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- salt and blackpepper
- olive oil
- thyme
- garlic powder
- heavy cream
- butter
- mushrooms
Instructions
- Slice the chicken breasts horizontally to create thin medallions. If the medallions are thick, you can gently flatten them with a meat mallet or rolling pin to ensure even cooking.
- Season the chicken medallions with salt, black pepper, dried thyme, and garlic powder on both sides.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken medallions for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and golden brown. Use a cooking thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove the medallions from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and minced garlic. Sauté until the mushrooms are tender and golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.
- Pour in the heavy cream and stir well. Let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.
- Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir in chopped fresh parsley for added flavor and color.
