This chicken and mushrooms recipe video is an experiment in extreme self-control; I wanted to challenge myself to make a chicken and mushrooms recipe using only chicken and mushrooms.
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breast halves, boneless, skin-on
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced 1/4 inch thick
- 1 pinch salt
- ½ cup water
- 1 tablespoon butter
Directions
Step 1
Gather all ingredients.
Step 2
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Step 3
Season chicken on all sides with salt and ground black pepper.
Step 4
Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in an ovenproof skillet. Place chicken skin-side down in skillet and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
Step 5
Turn chicken over; stir mushrooms with a pinch of salt into skillet. Increase heat to high; cook, stirring mushrooms occasionally, until mushrooms shrink slightly, about 5 minutes.
Step 6
Transfer skillet to the preheated oven and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken breasts to a plate and loosely tent with foil; set aside.
Step 7
Set skillet on the stovetop over medium-high heat; cook and stir mushrooms until brown bits start to form on the bottom of the pan, about 5 minutes. Pour water into the skillet, and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits off of the bottom of the pan. Cook until water is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
Step 8
Stir in any accumulated juices from the chicken into the skillet. Stir butter into mushroom mixture, stirring constantly until butter is completely melted and incorporated.
Step 9
Season with salt and pepper. Spoon mushroom sauce over chicken and serve.
