Ingredients

CHICKEN BREAST 500 gr

FRESH MUSHROOMS 500 gr

GARLIC 1 clove

EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL to taste

CHOPPED PARSLEY to taste

FINE SALT to taste

WHITE WINE 1 glass

MILK 2 tablespoons

Method

Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth, to remove excess soil, and cut them into slices. Sauté the garlic in a pan with extra virgin olive oil. Add the mushrooms and chopped parsley, add salt, pepper and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Place the chicken breasts on a work surface. Cut them into slices, pass them in flour and shake them, to remove excess flour. Place the strips in the pan with the mushrooms. Halfway through cooking, blend with the white wine and, as soon as it has evaporated, add the milk. Continue cooking with the lid, until a thick cream has formed: if it shrinks too much, add a little more milk. Your chicken strips with mushrooms are ready to be served with a sprinkling of parsley.

Recommendations

If you want to make the dish even creamier, you can replace the milk with cooking cream. Those who prefer can prepare a lighter dish, also suitable for those who are lactose intolerant: you can use water instead of milk. In this case you can also enrich the dish with the addition of some cherry tomatoes, if you prefer. The passage of chicken strips in the flour, will make the meat softer.
