I Seriously Make This Mushroom Chicken 3 Times a Week! 😄 One Skillet Dinner

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

chicken breasts

🥗Healthier: chicken thighs

💰Cheaper: bone-in chicken

Thighs are more flavorful and often less expensive.

white wine

🥗Healthier: chicken broth

💰Cheaper: apple cider vinegar

Broth adds flavor without alcohol.

Parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated cheese blend

Nutritional yeast offers a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

Heat olive oil and a little butter in a hot skillet.

Lay the chicken in the skillet and season with salt and black pepper.

Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes until golden, then flip it over and cook for 5 more minutes until cooked through.

Transfer the chicken to a plate and let it rest to make it softer and juicier.

In the same skillet, add finely chopped shallot and sauté for 2 minutes.

Add 2 cloves of garlic to the skillet and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add the mushrooms and a pinch of salt, cooking for 5-7 minutes.

Pour in the heavy cream and let it start to bubble.

Add Parmesan cheese (or Mozzarella) and stir until it turns into a thick, creamy cheese sauce.

Return the chicken to the skillet and let it warm for a few minutes.

Sprinkle fresh parsley on top before serving.
