    Chicken, mushrooms, green peas, and angel hair pasta on a white plate garnished with diced green onions.

     

    ⏲️ Time needed

    This is a quick stovetop meal, with the entire dish taking only about 35 minutes from refrigerator to table. The thickness of your chicken breasts will affect cooking time, so choose thin cut breasts for even, quick cooking, or prepare them by pounding them with the side of a meat mallet.

    🥘 Ingredients

    • olive oil for sautéing
    • chicken broth
    • chicken breast halves
    • chopped green onion
    • quartered mushrooms
    • dried rosemary
    • minced garlic
    • white wine
    • cornstarch for thickening

    For a richer sauce, try clarified butter instead of olive oil for sautéing.

    📋 Instructions

    Lightly brown the chicken breasts in olive oil in a hot skillet. Once browned, add the remaining ingredients except the cornstarch. Cover  and heat to a boil, then simmer at reduced heat until chicken is cooked through, about 10 - 15 minutes.

    While chicken is cooking, mix cornstarch with reserved tablespoon of room temperature broth to make a slurry. Set aside until chicken is cooked through.

    When the chicken is done, remove the chicken and mushrooms and set aside, leaving the liquid in pan. Add the cornstarch slurry to the liquid in the pan and mix well over medium heat until mixture starts to thicken. Return chicken and mushrooms to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes before serving.

    🍷 Wine choice

    When cooking with wine, it's important to choose the best variety for both the preparation method and the other ingredients. White wine is typically paired with poultry, but the preparation method determines which type will best enhance the flavors of the recipe. Dry white wines like riesling or Sauvignon blanc are a good choice for this dish because they are good for making a light sauce and pair well with rosemary.
