Instructions
Creating Easy Chicken Lombardy is simple if you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dredge each breast in flour, shaking off excess.
2. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat until hot.
3. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
4. Sauté the Mushrooms: In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
5. Make the Sauce: Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the heavy cream and thyme, allowing the mixture to thicken slightly.
6. Combine Chicken and Sauce: Return the chicken to the skillet. Spoon the sauce over the chicken, then sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
7. Melt the Cheese: Cover the skillet and let it cook on low heat for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
