Categories     Chicken     Mushroom     Dinner     Sauté

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 package 8- or 12-ounce lemon-and-pepper-marinated chicken breasts (4 breast halves total)
1/4 cup margarine or butter
2 cups packaged sliced fresh mushrooms
2 teaspoons fresh or frozen snipped chives
1/2 cup whipping cream

Steps:

  • In a large skillet cook the chicken breasts in hot margarine or butter over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes or till chicken is tender enough to be easily pierced with a fork and no pink remains, turning occasionally so chicken browns evenly. Transfer chicken to a serving platter, reserving the drippings in the skillet. Cover the chicken and keep warm.
  • Add the mushrooms and chives to the reserved drippings in the skillet. Cook and stir for 1 to 2 minutes or till the mushrooms are tender.
  • Stir in the whipping cream; boil gently for 3 minutes or till the sauce is slightly thickened, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the skillet.
  • To serve, spoon the sauce over the chicken.
