Step 1

Sprinkle chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. In a large skillet, cook chicken in 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat for 6-8 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 170°.
Remove and keep warm.
In the same skillet, saute mushrooms in remaining oil until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer.
