Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

⅓ cup chicken broth
½ cup dry white wine
8 small white mushrooms, quartered
½ teaspoon dried tarragon
⅛ teaspoon white pepper
2 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
½ cup heavy cream
salt to taste
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste

Steps:

  • Combine chicken broth, wine, mushrooms, tarragon, and pepper in a frying pan. Add chicken and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until chicken is no longer pink in the middle and the juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove chicken to a plate and keep warm.
  • Add cream to the cooking liquid and mushrooms in the pan. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Cook until reduced to about 1/2 cup, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt.
  • Pour mushroom sauce over chicken. Garnish with parsley.
