Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• p/n salt and black pepper
• 8 oz cremini or white button mushrooms, thinly sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
• 1 small shallot, finely chopped
• 1-2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
• 1/2 cup Asiago cheese, freshly shredded
• 3/4 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard (optional)
• 2 tbsp olive oil or butter

Instructions

1

Enclose every breast between two sheets of cling wrap or inside a large freezer bag, then lightly pound the thicker portions with a mallet or heavy rolling pin until flat. Pat the flattened chicken dry using paper towels and season liberally on all sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

2

Heat 2 tablespoons of oil or butter in a skillet set to medium-high heat until hot and shimmering. Carefully add the chicken breasts without crowding the skillet, searing for 4 to 5 minutes per side until a rich brown crust develops and the meat reaches proper internal temperature. Transfer the seared chicken to a warm plate and let rest for 5 minutes so the juices settle.

3

Keep the residual pan drippings and add another dab of butter or oil to the skillet if needed. Add the sliced mushrooms in a single layer and let them brown undisturbed for a couple of minutes to develop color. Stir in the chopped shallots and minced garlic, sautéing for 2 to 3 minutes until softened and aromatic.

4

Pour the chicken broth into the pan, using a wooden spoon to scrape up all the flavorful browned bits stuck to the bottom. Turn the heat down to medium-low, then slowly blend in the heavy cream and shredded Asiago cheese until fully melted and glossy. Stir in the Dijon mustard if using, letting the sauce simmer gently for 3 to 4 minutes until thickened.

5

Nestled the seared chicken breasts back into the skillet along with any accumulated plate juices. Spoon the warm mushroom Asiago cream sauce over the chicken, simmering for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until fully heated through.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I substitute Parmesan cheese for Asiago in this chicken recipe? Yes! While Asiago offers a slightly nuttier, punchier flavor profile, freshly grated Parmesan or Romano cheese makes a wonderful 1:1 substitute in this Mushroom Asiago Chicken Recipe. What should I serve with Creamy Mushroom Asiago Chicken? This rich skillet meal pairs exceptionally well over garlic mashed potatoes, buttered egg noodles, warm jasmine rice, or crusty artisan bread to soak up every last drop of the decadent Creamy Asiago Chicken Recipe sauce. How do I store and reheat leftover Creamy Mushroom Asiago Chicken? Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat with a splash of chicken broth or extra cream to keep the sauce smooth and prevent curdling.
