Ingredients
  

  • 500 g chicken tenders
  • 250 g Paris mushrooms
  • 1 Shallot finely minced
  • 20 cl heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 10 g butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley chopped (optional)

Equipment

  • Large skillet

Method
 

  1. Mince the shallot and mushrooms. Cut chicken into smaller pieces if necessary.
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Brown the chicken on all sides. Remove from pan and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, melt butter over low heat. Add shallot and cook until translucent (2-3 minutes). Add mushrooms and cook until tender and slightly browned (5-7 minutes).
  4. Pour in heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
  5. Return chicken to the pan. Mix gently to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes until heated through.
  6. Serve immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve with rice, pasta, or vegetables.

Notes

For a spicy kick, add a pinch of Espelette pepper or a few drops of Tabasco sauce. You can also substitute the cream with coconut cream for an exotic flavor. For a richer version, add dry white wine while cooking the mushrooms.
