Description

Savor tender chicken medallions smothered in a rich mushroom sauce, served over buttery noodles for a comforting, hearty meal.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken and Sauce:

  • 1 lb chicken breasts, sliced into medallions
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp dried thyme or rosemary (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

For the Buttered Noodles:

  • 8 oz egg noodles
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Cook the Noodles:
    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, add egg noodles, and cook until tender. Drain and toss with butter, salt, and pepper. Set aside and keep warm.
  • Prepare the Chicken:
    Season chicken medallions with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken, cooking until golden brown on each side (about 3-4 minutes per side). Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  • Make the Mushroom Sauce:
    In the same skillet, melt butter. Add mushrooms and onions, cooking until softened (about 5 minutes). Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, then stir in heavy cream and thyme or rosemary if using. Let the sauce simmer until slightly thickened.
  • Combine and Serve:
    Return the chicken to the skillet and let it simmer in the sauce for another 5 minutes, or until cooked through. Spoon buttered noodles onto plates and top with chicken medallions and mushroom sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

This dish is perfect for a weeknight dinner and pairs well with a side salad or steamed vegetables.
