Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp parsley Chopped, for garnish.
  • 1.5 cups dry white wine
  • 2 cups mushrooms (cut in half)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 0.5 cup heavy cream At room temperature.
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 0.5 cup flour For dredging.
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 0.5 cup shredded asiago cheese Can substitute with parmesan or pecorino.
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them to about 1/4-inch thick. Cut each breast into three "tender sizes".
  2. Coat each piece of chicken in flour, shaking off any excess. Set aside.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet, heat 2 tbsp of butter with 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium heat. Add the floured chicken and cook for about 4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the remaining tbsp of olive oil, onion powder, halved mushrooms, and minced garlic. Sauté until the mushrooms brown.
  3. Pour in the white wine, scraping the browned bits from the pan. Return the chicken to the skillet and sprinkle with parsley.
  4. Bring everything to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and let cook for about 15 minutes.
  5. Take the chicken out of the pan, add heavy cream, and stir over low heat until heated through. Gradually mix in the asiago cheese and keep stirring until it melts and the sauce thickens.
  6. Return the chicken to the skillet, heat through, and serve.
