By CheeseDiva

Ingredients

• 1 pound chicken breast (cubed)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
• salt
• pepper
• 1 cup long grain rice (uncooked)
• 2 1/2 cups chicken broth
• 6 ounces sliced mushrooms (about 1 cup)
• 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese (I prefer freshly grated)
• salt
• pepper
• chopped parsley
• shredded parmesan cheese

Preparation

Step 1

In a medium-sized pot or skillet add the olive oil and turn to medium-high heat. Add the chicken to the skillet along with Italian Seasoning and salt and pepper and cook until the chicken is no longer pink and cooked throughout.
Add the uncooked rice to the skillet, chicken broth, and mushrooms. Reduce heat to medium-low and cover and let simmer for 15-20 minutes until rice is cooked and tender.
Stir in heavy cream and parmesan cheese and salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with freshly grated parmesan and fresh chopped parsley.
