Creamy Parmesan Chicken with Mushrooms
Creamy Parmesan Chicken with Mushrooms is an easy, one pan dish that's ready in just 30 minutes. Fast, flavorful, and a dinnertime favorite!
Equipment
- Skillet
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 medium boneless skinless chicken thighs (or chicken breasts*)
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pound sliced baby bella mushrooms
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat butter and olive oil until melted.
- Season chicken on both sides with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Add chicken to skillet and cook on both sides until browned and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes. You want the chicken to reach an internal temperature of 165°F. Once chicken is cooked through, remove to a plate and cover to keep warm.
- Wipe skillet, if needed, and add more butter. Add mushrooms, salt, pepper, and garlic powder, to taste, and sauté until tender, about 3-4 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low and add the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Stir until combined and then simmer for 3-4 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
- Add chicken back to skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until warmed through. Serve with rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes, if desired.
Notes
- *If using chicken breasts, slice horizontally or pound thin so cooking time is decreased.
