Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts You can substitute with chicken thighs for a juicier bite.
  • 1/2 cup flour For dredging the chicken.
  • 2 tbsp butter For sautéing the chicken.
  • 1 tbsp olive oil Used for sautéing the chicken.
For the Sauce
  • 1 cup heavy cream Adds creaminess to the sauce.
  • 1/2 cup shredded Asiago cheese Can experiment with different cheeses.
  • 1 1/2 cup dry white wine For deglazing the skillet.
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced) Enhances flavor.
  • 2 cups mushrooms (cut in half) Add earthiness.
  • 1 tsp onion powder For depth of flavor.
  • 1 tsp parsley For garnish.
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Place the chicken breasts between plastic wrap and pound them to about 1/4 inch thick. Slice each breast into three tender-sized pieces and dredge them in flour. Set aside.
Cooking
  1. In a large deep skillet, heat 2 tbsp of butter with 1 tbsp of olive oil. Add the dredged chicken pieces and sauté until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. Once done, remove them from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same pan, add the remaining olive oil along with onion powder, mushrooms, and garlic. Sauté until the mushrooms start to brown.
  3. Pour in the dry white wine, scraping up all the tasty browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
  4. Return the chicken to the skillet, sprinkle with parsley, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes.
  5. Remove the chicken again and set aside. Stir in the heavy cream, then add the shredded Asiago cheese, mixing over low heat until the cheese completely melts and the sauce thickens.
  6. Once the sauce is ready, return the chicken to the skillet, allowing it to heat through in the sauce.
Serving
  1. Your Creamy Asiago Chicken is now ready to be enjoyed!
