Ingredients:

4 tbsp unsalted butter, divided

2 large shallots, sliced thin

2 garlic cloves, minced

12 oz. mushrooms, cleaned and thickly sliced

1 tsp Dijon mustard

½ c all-purpose flour

½ tsp garlic powder

2 large springs of fresh thyme

2 tsp cornstarch dissolved in 2 tbsp water or broth

3 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut in half horizontally into cutlets

1 ½ c chicken broth, low sodium

½ tsp salt

1 tsp pepper

½ c heavy cream

½ c dry white wine

1 tbsp olive oil

Directions:

Use paper towels to pat dry the chicken breasts.

Use a meat mallet to gently pound each chicken slice.

Add garlic powder, salt, flour, and pepper into a bowl. Whisk until well blended.

Place a large skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium.

Add 1 tbsp of oil and 2 tbsp of butter, then allow them to become hot.

Toss each chicken slice with the flour mixture, then shake off any excess. Make sure to coat each well.

Add the chicken pieces into the skillet and cook each side for 5 minutes or until they turn brown. Transfer the chicken onto a clean plate.

In the empty skillet, add butter and let it melt.

Add the mushrooms, then sauté until soft.

Add the shallots and sauté until a bit caramelized.

Add the wine, then scrape the bottom of the skillet to get the browned bits.

Add chicken broth, mustard, thyme, and cream. Stir until well blended. Bring the mixture to a boil for a few minutes.

Add the slurry (cornstarch and water mixture), then stir until well blended. Simmer for a few minutes until the texture becomes thick.

Put the chicken back into the skillet, then toss until well coated by the delicious sauce. Simmer for a few more minutes.

Discard the thyme sprigs, then sprinkle salt and pepper to season. Make sure to taste first before adding anything.

Remove the skillet from the heat, then sprinkle freshly chopped herbs on top to garnish.

Serve right away with rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes. Enjoy!
