Preparation
Step 1
1. In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture; shake off excess and set aside.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of the reserved oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Fry the chicken until golden on each side, cooked through and no longer pink (about 5-6 minutes each side). Transfer when done to a plate.
3. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet; saute the garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute). Add the tomatoes and mushrooms; fry until the mushrooms are just soft.
4. Reduce heat to low-medium, add the milk or cream and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper to your taste and add the milk/cornstarch mixture. Continue to simmer while quickly stirring the mixture through until the sauce thickens.
5. Add in the parmesan cheese; allow sauce to simmer for a another minute until cheese melts through the sauce. Add the chicken back into the pan; sprinkle with the fresh basil and a little extra pepper. Serve over pasta, rice, or with steamed vegetables.
