Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your Savory Herb-Roasted Mushroom Chicken:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. Heat Olive Oil: In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
4. Sear Chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
5. Sauté Mushrooms: In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until they are browned, about 5-7 minutes.
6. Add Garlic and Herbs: Stir in the minced garlic, dried thyme, and dried rosemary. Cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
7. Deglaze the Pan: Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
8. Combine and Return Chicken: Return the seared chicken to the skillet, spooning some of the mushroom mixture over the top.
9. Bake: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C).
10. Garnish: Remove the skillet from the oven. Sprinkle fresh parsley over the top before serving.
