Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms Use your favorite mushrooms like cremini or button.

- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions
Cooking
- Heat the olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the garlic and sliced mushrooms. Sauté until the mushrooms are tender.
- Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes to reduce slightly.

Notes
You can store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. For freezing, use freezer-safe containers. Reheat gently to keep the chicken tender.
