Instructions

5. Cook chicken until the chicken is golden, about 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
6. Add remaining tablespoon of light butter to the same skillet and add mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms begin to brown, 3 to 4 minutes.

8. Using a rubber spatula to scrape any brown bits from the pan into the liquid. Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and gently boil, uncovered, until the sauce is reduced by about half, slightly thickened, and darker in color, about 10 to 15 minutes.
9. Add the chicken back to the pan. Reduce the heat and cover. Simmer for 5 minutes or until chicken is warmed through and the sauce thickens.
10. Garnish with fresh thyme, parsley or rosemary.
11. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 5-7 days.
