Recipe Ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts approx. 680g, sliced
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms 225g, sliced brown mushrooms
  • 1 cup heavy cream 240ml
  • 0.5 cup Asiago cheese 50g, finely shredded
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley 8g, chopped into flakes
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter 30g
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil 15ml, or other high-heat oil
  • 0.5 cup chicken stock 120ml
  • 3 cloves garlic 15g, minced

Equipment

  • 1 Heavy-bottomed skillet (Cast iron or Stainless steel) Essential for the golden-brown crust.
  • 1 Chef's Knife For slicing chicken and mushrooms.
  • 1 Shallow matte white ceramic bowl For the perfect presentation.

Method
 

Searing the Chicken
  1. Pat chicken dry and season with salt/pepper. Heat oil in skillet over medium-high. Sear chicken for 5-6 minutes until a deep golden-brown charred crust forms.
  2. Flip and cook for 4-5 more minutes until 165°F (74°C). Remove and let rest before slicing into strips.
Creating the Sauce
  1. Melt butter in the same skillet. Sauté brown mushrooms until earthy and golden. Add garlic for 30 seconds.
  2. Pour in chicken stock, scraping the pan. Reduce by half, then stir in heavy cream. Simmer until the sauce is thick and glossy.
Assembly
  1. Place sliced chicken in a matte white bowl. Drape with thick sauce and mushrooms. Heavily garnish with shredded Asiago and parsley flakes.
