MUSHROOM SAUCE FOR CHICKEN BREASTS RECIPES

Steps:

• Pound chicken breasts with a meat mallet to flaten.
• Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt, basil and thyme. Using a large saucepan over low heat, saute chicken breasts in olive oil until juices run clear -- approximately 10-15 minutes. Turn heat off, cover with lid and allow chicken to remain in pan for 10 minutes.
• In a small saucepan saute mushrooms in olive oil. Add minced garlic and wine.
• Remove chicken from large saucepan to a plate.
• Place mushroom mixture in large saucepan and stir to loosen brown bits from bottom of pan. Allow mushrooms to simmer approximately 2 minutes.
• Add heavy cream. In a small cup, dissolve cornstarch with cold water and add to cream. Heat and stir until sauce thickens.
• Place chicken breasts back in pan and spoon sauce over chicken. Allow chicken to reheat. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top. Serve with pasta of choice.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Mix together garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Sprinkle on both sides of chicken tenders.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken tenders and sear until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and loosely tent with foil.
• Reduce heat to medium and melt butter in the skillet. Add mushrooms and onion and cook until mushrooms start to brown, about 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Whisk together half-and-half, chicken broth, lemon juice, 2 tablespoons dill, and cornstarch in a medium bowl; add to the skillet. Stir until sauce is slightly thickened, about 3 minutes, and season with salt and pepper.
• Reduce heat to low, add chicken and any accumulated juices to the pan. Simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 4 to 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon dill on top of the chicken, and serve with lemon wedges.
