Scale
  • 2 boneless chicken breasts, sliced in half (horizontally)
  • 1/2 Cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 8 ounces baby bella mushrooms, sliced
  • 10 ounces white mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 shallot, minced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/3 Cup white wine
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme

  1. Cut chicken breasts in half, horizontally.
