Ingredients
For the Chicken:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
1 egg, beaten
1 cup breadcrumbs (panko for extra crunch)
2 tbsp olive oil
For the Creamy Mushroom Sauce:
1 cup mushrooms, sliced (cremini or button)
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Chicken
Butterfly the chicken breasts for thinner, even pieces.
In a shallow bowl, mix flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Beat the egg in another bowl. Place breadcrumbs in a third bowl.
Dredge each piece of chicken in the flour mixture, dip into the egg, and coat thoroughly in breadcrumbs.
Step 2: Cook the Chicken
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Place breaded chicken into the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through (internal temp: 165°F / 75°C).
Remove the chicken and place it on a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 3: Make the Sauce
In the same skillet, add sliced mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes until browned and tender.
Pour in the heavy cream and bring it to a light simmer.
Stir in Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Let the sauce simmer until thickened slightly (about 3-5 minutes).
Step 4: Assemble and Serve
Plate the crispy chicken and spoon the creamy mushroom sauce over the top.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot with pasta, mashed potatoes, or rice.
Tips & Variations
Extra Flavor: Marinate the chicken in buttermilk overnight for extra tenderness.
Cheese Swap: Try Asiago or Romano if you’re out of Parmesan.
Low-Carb Option: Use almond flour and crushed pork rinds for a keto-friendly crust.
Make it Spicy: Add a pinch of chili flakes or cayenne pepper to the flour mixture.
This recipe is perfect with our Lebkuchen (German Spice Cookies) or even a crisp Healthy Quinoa Chickpea Salad on the side.
