Keto Creamy Chicken and Mushroom


- Servings: 4

- Prep Time: 15 minutes

- Cook Time: 20 minutes

- Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients:

1. 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast or thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces

2. 2 cups mixed mushrooms (button, cremini, shiitake), sliced

3. 2 tablespoons butter

4. 1 medium onion, chopped

5. 2 cloves garlic, minced

6. 1 cup chicken broth

7. 1/2 cup heavy cream

8. 1 teaspoon dried thyme

9. Salt and pepper, to taste

10. Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)


_Instructions:_


1. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

2. In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and start to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the chopped onion and cook until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

3. Add the chicken broth, heavy cream, and dried thyme to the skillet. Stir to combine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

4. Return the chicken to the skillet and cook until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. Serve the chicken and sauce hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
