A few slices of chicken breast, delicious cardoncelli mushrooms, and in a few minutes, you can bring to the table a dish that everyone will love.

Ingredients for Chicken Breast with Mushrooms
- 14 oz chicken breast
- 1.1 lbs cardoncelli mushrooms

How to Prepare Chicken with Mushrooms
Clean the mushrooms by removing the earthy end part. Wash them quickly under running water or simply wipe them with kitchen paper towels. Cut them into pieces not too small. Pour 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, the garlic clove, and the mushrooms into a pan.
Let the mushrooms cook over medium heat for 5-6 minutes. Add the tomato sauce to the pan, adjust the salt, and let it cook for another 3-4 minutes covering the pan with a lid.
While the mushrooms are cooking, prepare the chicken. Cut the chicken breast into medium-sized pieces. Coat the chicken in flour, shaking off the excess. Transfer the cooked mushrooms into a bowl. Pour 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and the chicken into the same pan. Let it brown for a few minutes over medium heat, turning it on all sides.
Pour the mushrooms back into the pan with the chicken. Also add the creamy cheese, chopped parsley, and a pinch of pepper. Mix well and let it flavor over low heat, covering the pan with a lid for 3-4 minutes.

Loredana’s Tips
If you have leftover chicken, store it in a container in the fridge for one day. You just need to reheat it for a few minutes in a pan or, even quicker, in the microwave.
