Ingredients

  • 2 t olive oil
  • 3 c fresh mushrooms, fresh sliced
  • 1 # uncooked boneless skinless chicken breasts, four 4 oz pieces
  • 1 t dried thyme
  • 1/2 t salt
  • 1/4 t pepper
  • 1/2 c table wine, Marsala variety
  • 1 1/4 c canned beef broth, reduced-sodium, divided
  • 1 1/2 T cornstarch

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and saute until tender and releasing liquid, about 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, place chicken on a plate and season both sides with thyme, salt and pepper. Move mushrooms to outer edge of skillet once cooked. Place chicken in center of skillet and cook until golden, about 2 -3 minutes per side.

Add wine to skillet; simmer 1 minute. Add 3/4 c of broth and simmer, uncovered, until chicken is tender and cooked through, about 8 minutes

Dissolve cornstarch in remaining 1/2 c of broth in a small bowl; add to skillet. Simmer until sauce thickens, stirring constantly and incorporating mushrooms into the liquid, about 1 minute. Serve chicken with mushroom sauce spooned over top. Yields about 3 ounces of chicken and 1/3 c of sauce per serving.
