A quick and flavorful dish featuring tender chicken breasts, earthy mushrooms, and a rich, creamy sauce that’s perfect for any occasion. This one-pan recipe is easy to make and packed with comforting flavors.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into bite-sized pieces)
  • 8 oz mushrooms (cremini or button, sliced)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 medium onion (diced)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  • Sauté the chicken: Heat olive oil in a skillet. Cook the chicken until golden brown and fully cooked (165°F). Remove and set aside.
