Ingredients

  • 3 large chicken breasts, cut in half lengthwise
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 3/4 tsp dried thyme, or 2 tsp fresh thyme
  • 1/3 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup half and half
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1 1/2 tsp cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Salt and pepper chicken. Heat a large skillet to medium-high and add olive oil,  then sear the chicken, about 5 minutes a side. Make sure you get a nice sear on the chicken to add depth to the sauce. There should be lots of browned bits in stuck to the skillet. Move chicken to a plate and cover with tinfoil. 
  • In the same pan, saute garlic in cooking spray for 30 seconds. Add mushrooms, thyme, a pinch of salt. Brown mushrooms, then deglaze pan white wine. Scrape the bits from the bottom of the pan and cook until wine is evaporated and mushrooms are soft, about 5 minutes
  • Whisk half and half, almond milk, and cornstarch together in a separate bowl. Add to the pan, bring to a low boil, then simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. 
  • Add parmesan and stir until melted into the sauce. Place chicken and juices back in the skillet and simmer until chicken is heated through.
