Ingredients
  

  • 2 Chicken Breasts cut in half lengthwise
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • Salt & Pepper to taste
  • 1 Tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 Tbsp Butter
  • 1 medium Onion sliced thin
  • 12 oz Mushrooms cremini or white mushrooms, sliced
  • 3/4 cup Chicken Broth
  • 1 package Boursin Fine Herb and Cheese softened to room temperature
  • 2 Tbsp Parsley

Instructions
 

  • Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to get 4 thinner pieces. I like to pound them to get them flat and all the same but it's up to you! Season them with the garlic powder and some salt & pepper.
  • Add the oil and butter to a skillet over medium-high heat and let it heat up for a few minutes. Cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes/side or until cooked through, then transfer it to a plate.
  • To the skillet, add the onions and mushrooms and sauté for about 10 minutes or until softened and lightly browned / caramelized. Remove from pan and place with chicken. 
  • Add the chicken broth and the Boursin cheese to the skillet. Stir until you've got a smooth sauce. Add back in the mushrooms and onions. Let it bubble for 5 minutes, then stir in the chopped parsley if using.
  • Add the chicken back into the skillet and let it warm through for a couple of minutes. The sauce should be thicker by now (you can always cook it a bit longer if need be). If it's too thick, you can add another splash of chicken broth.
  • Enjoy!
