Boneless Chicken Breast with Portobello Mushrooms, Olives, Asparagus and a White Wine Sauce
I think I could eat this every night…well at least once a week. My recipe for this dish is loaded with amazing flavors and the whole dish happens in one skillet. Here is where I love using my cast iron 15″ skillet.
You’ll need:
- 4 boneless chicken breasts dried with a paper towel.
- 1/2 cup Italian green olives pitted
- 4-tbs olive oil
- 1 lb asparagus cut into small pieces, bottoms trimmed off
- 1 portobello mushroom cut in half then cut into 1/2″ slices
- 1/2 cup dry white wine like a Pinot Grigio
- 1/2 cup sliced onion
- 5 garlic cloves sliced thin
- 1 cup chicken stock
- 2 tbs butter
- Salt n pepper
Directions:
- Dry chicken thoroughly then season with salt n pepper.
- Add 2-tbs oil to a large hot skillet and brown the chicken on each side this will take 5 minutes per side.
- Remove the chicken to a plate, cover with foil.
- Now add the balance 2-tbs oil, garlic, onion, mushrooms and a pinch of salt n pepper to the skillet.
- Turn the heat to high and sauté this for 5 minutes.
- Now add the wine and deglaze the pan scraping up all the browned bits on the bottom of the skillet.
- Allow this to reduce by half then add the stock, chicken, asparagus and the olives, lower the heat, cover and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Remove the lid and cook uncovered 2 minutes, turn the chicken and cook another 2 minutes.
- Remove the chicken to a serving plate leaving everything else in the skillet, add the butter, turn up the heat and whisk everything together.
- Taste for salt n pepper.
- Pour the sauce and all the vegetables over the chicken and serve.
