Recipe Notes

• You could use boneless chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts.

• If you don't have avocado oil you an use olive oil. 

Here's how to make it: 

1. Season the chicken with sea salt and pepper on both sides, Add the flour to a shallow dish. Lightly coat the chicken on all sides with flour. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add in the chicken in two separate batches and cook for 2 minutes until golden brown then flip and cook for 2 minutes on the other side. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter for the second batch. Transfer the chicken to a 13x9-inch baking pan that's been coated with avocado oil or preferred oil.
2. In the same skillet add in the mushrooms and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes. Add in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more. In a small bowl whisk the broth together with 1 tablespoon of flour until there are no visible lumps. Pour this mixture into the skillet and bring to a simmer, stirring to remove any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
3. Pour the mushroom sauce over the chicken in the baking dish.
4. Sprinkle with cheese.
5. Bake in a preheated 375-degree F oven for 15 to 17 minutes, or just until chicken is cooked through and cheese is melted. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.
