Chicken Ingredients:
- 3 Chicken Breasts (cut into 6 cutlets)
- 1/2 cup Flour
- 2 Tsp Cajun seasoning
- 2 Tbsp Butter
- 2 Tbsp Olive oil
Sauce Ingredients:
- 5 Cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 lb. Mushrooms (sliced)
- 1 Tsp Thyme (dried)
- 1 Cup White Wine (dry)
- 1 Cup Heavy cream
- 1 Cup Asiago cheese (shredded)
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
Prepare the Chicken Breast:
Slice the Chicken Breasts: Slice each of the 3 chicken breasts horizontally to create 6 thinner cutlets.
Season the Flour: In a shallow dish, combine ½ cup flour with 2 tsp Cajun seasoning. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the seasoning.
Coat the Chicken: Dredge each chicken cutlet in the seasoned flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Heat the Pan: Heat 2 Tbsp butter and 2 Tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the butter is melted and bubbling.
Cook the Chicken: Add the floured chicken cutlets to the hot skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate. Cover with foil to keep warm.
Prepare the Sauce:
Sauté the Garlic and Mushrooms: In the same skillet, add the minced 5 cloves of garlic and the sliced 1 lb. mushrooms. Sauté over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are browned and have released their moisture. Stir frequently to prevent burning the garlic.
Add Thyme: Stir in 1 tsp dried thyme and cook for an additional 1 minute to release its flavor.
Deglaze with Wine: Pour in 1 cup of dry white wine, stirring to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes, or until the wine is reduced by half.
Incorporate Cream: Reduce the heat to medium-low and add 1 cup of heavy cream to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
Melt Asiago Cheese: Gradually add 1 cup of shredded Asiago cheese, stirring constantly until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Season the Sauce: Season the sauce with ½ tsp salt and ¼ tsp black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Combine Chicken and Sauce
Return Chicken to Skillet: Place the cooked chicken cutlets back into the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top. Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for about 2-3 minutes to heat through and absorb the flavors.
Serve: Transfer the chicken cutlets to serving plates, spooning additional sauce and mushrooms over the top.
