Ingredients

• 4 boneless chicken breasts
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Mushroom Sauce

• 2 tablespoons butter

3. Add the chicken broth and cook, stirring, about 2 minutes.
4. Reduce heat and pour in the cream. Bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper.
5. Add the chicken back to the sauce and heat through.
