INGREDIENTS

4 oz chicken breast

2 cup cremini mushrooms

1 tbsp ghee

3 clove garlic

1 tsp fresh thyme

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp lemon juice

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2

  Clean the cremini mushrooms with a damp cloth to remove debris and slice them into even halves.

• 3

  Mince the garlic cloves finely and strip the leaves from the fresh thyme sprigs.

• 4

  In a small bowl, whisk together the melted ghee, minced garlic, thyme, and half of the sea salt and black pepper.

• 5

  Place the mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with half of the garlic ghee mixture, and toss until every mushroom is well-coated.

• 6

  Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with the remaining sea salt and black pepper.

• 7

  Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5 minutes per side until a deep golden crust forms.

• 8

  Slide the mushrooms into the oven and roast for 18 minutes until they are tender and the garlic is aromatic and lightly browned.

• 9

  Place the seared chicken in the oven on a separate tray for the final 8 minutes of the mushroom roasting time to ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

• 10

  Drizzle the roasted mushrooms with fresh lemon juice and serve immediately alongside the sliced pan-seared chicken.
