INGREDIENTS

5 oz Chicken breast

2 cups Cremini mushrooms

1 tbsp Ghee

0.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil

3 cloves Garlic

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

1 tsp Fresh thyme

1 tsp Lemon juice

PREPARATION

• 1

  Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.

• 2

  Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.

• 3

  Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 5 to 6 minutes per side until a golden crust forms and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

• 4

  Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside on a plate to rest.

• 5

  In the same skillet, add the ghee and the sliced cremini mushrooms, stirring to coat them in the pan juices.

• 6

  Sauté the mushrooms for 5 to 7 minutes until they have released their moisture and developed a deep brown color.

• 7

  Add the minced garlic cloves and fresh thyme to the mushrooms, cooking for just 60 seconds until the garlic is fragrant but not burnt.

• 8

  Pour in the lemon juice to deglaze the pan, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any flavorful browned bits from the bottom.

• 9

  Slice the rested chicken breast into strips and serve immediately topped with the warm garlic butter mushrooms.
