Ingredients:
Chicken Breast, boneless, skinless, 4oz - 6 breasts
Directions:
1. Ensure all chicken breasts are of even thickness. If not, either slice breasts open or pound breasts on cutting board until all breasts are evenly thick. This will make cooking time the same for all breasts. 2. In a zip lock bag, shake chicken one piece at a time in flour, salt and pepper. Place on a wire rack to rest 10 minutes and dredge the pieces in the flour mixture again. 3. Champagne-chicken sauce: Melt butter with olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken in batches, 5 minutes each side or until golden brown and remove to a plate. 4. Add shallots, mushrooms and garlic to pan stirring often for 10 minutes. Stir in Champagne and thyme, bring to a boil, stirring to loosen browned particles from bottom of skillet. 5. Reduce heat, and return chicken to skillet. Cover and simmer 10 minutes or until done. 6. Transfer chicken to a serving platter. 7. Stir cream into mushroom mixture and cook 5 to 6 minutes or until thickened. Add salt and pepper to your desired taste. 8. Serve champagne-chicken sauce immediately over chicken.
