Method

Steps to Make

Begin by gently pounding the boneless chicken breasts to an even thickness of ½ inch, and season both sides with salt and pepper for flavor.
Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the seasoned chicken for 4–5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
In the same skillet, add sliced mushrooms, minced garlic, and shallots. Sauté for 5–7 minutes until soft and golden.
Pour in chicken broth to deglaze the pan, scraping any bits stuck to the bottom. Lower heat, stir in heavy cream and shredded Asiago cheese until smooth.
Return the seared chicken to the skillet, cover with sauce, and simmer for 2–3 minutes.
Plate the Mushroom Asiago Chicken, drizzling the sauce over each piece and garnishing with fresh thyme if desired.
