Asiago Chicken In A White Wine Mushroom Sauce Food

MUSHROOM ASIAGO CHICKEN

Steps:

• Pound chicken breast with a meat mallet between 2 sheets of waxed paper or plastic wrap until meat is uniform thickness; about 1/4-inch. Cut into serving-sized pieces (2 or 3 pieces per breast)
• Heat the butter with *1* tbs of olive oil in deep, heavy skillet or saute pan over medium heat.
• Dredge chicken in seasoned flour. Add to hot oil/butter in skillet. Saute until golden on each side, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from pan.
• Add remaining olive oil to hot skillet. Saute mushrooms and garlic until mushrooms begin to brown.
• Add white wine to skillet, scraping up all the browned bits that are at the bottom of the pan (this is called "deglazing"). Bruise the fresh thyme by twisting it between your fingers or hitting it with the dull side of a knife in a few places. Add thyme to mushroom/wine mixture in pan.
• Add the chicken back to the pan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes.
• Remove chicken from pan. Add the cream and heat through. Add the asiago cheese (if you like it strongly flavored, use 1/2 cup; not as strongly flavored, use the 1/4 cup-asiago is a powerful cheese and you can even use less for just a whisper of flavor. I like it strong so I used 1/2 cup).
• Cook, stirring constantly over low heat until cheese melts. Continue cooking until sauce is reduced by about 1/2. If you wish to skip the reduction step, you may thicken the sauce slightly with about 1 tbs instant flour or 1 tbs cornstarch mixed with 2 tbs water...however, the reduction will taste better.
• Add chicken back to pan and heat through.
• Garnish with sprigs of fresh thyme. May be served over any pasta.

ASIAGO CHICKEN IN A WHITE WINE MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Combine flour, seasoning salt, paprika, salt and pepper; dredge chicken pieces in flour. NOTE: I know that there are carbs in flour, however, even though this calls for 1/2 cup, you will be using very little of that, maybe 2 Tbsp for all the chicken pieces. NOTE: I cut breast in half if they are large. If you have small pieces, you will need 4.
• 2. In large skillet over a medium heat, heat 2 Tbsp butter with 1 Tbsp olive oil. Fry chicken about 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Remove to plate.
• 3. Add remaining 1 Tbsp olive oil to hot skillet. Add mushroom and garlic and saute until mushrooms begin to brown. Add wine, broth and thyme.
• 4. Add chicken back to pan, bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer covered 12 to 15 minutes.
• 5. Remove chicken from pan and add cheese and cream. Cook, stirring constantly until cheese has melted. Continue cooking until reduced by 1/2. It will thickened as liquid cooks out.
