Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Main Ingredients

  • 4 boneless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 8 oz (225g) mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 lb (450g) baby potatoes, halved

Liquids and Sauces

  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine (optional)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey

Seasonings and Garnish

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Season Chicken: Season the chicken breasts evenly with salt and pepper to enhance the flavor before cooking.
  2. Sear Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken breasts for about 5 minutes on each side until nicely browned. Remove them from the skillet and set aside to keep warm.
  3. Sauté Onion and Garlic: In the same skillet, melt butter then add finely chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened.
  4. Cook Mushrooms and Potatoes: Add the sliced mushrooms and halved baby potatoes to the skillet. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to start softening the vegetables.
  5. Add Liquids and Sauces: Pour in chicken broth and dry white wine (if using). Stir in soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, honey, and dried thyme to create a flavorful simmering sauce.
  6. Simmer Chicken with Vegetables: Nestle the seared chicken breasts back into the skillet among the vegetables. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer gently for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender.
  7. Season to Taste: Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed to balance flavors.
  8. Serve: Plate the chicken with mushrooms and potatoes, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a bright, fresh finishing touch.

Notes

  • Substitute dry white wine with additional chicken broth if you prefer to avoid alcohol.
  • Use skin-on chicken breasts for extra flavor, just increase cooking time to ensure doneness.
  • Baby potatoes can be replaced with fingerling potatoes or regular potatoes cut into chunks.
  • Make sure to check chicken internal temperature to ensure it reaches 165°F (75°C) for safety.
  • This dish pairs well with a side of steamed greens or a simple green salad.
