vegetable oil

mushrooms

unsalted butter

garlic, crushed (or very finely chopped)

red onion, finely chopped

chicken stock

Slice the chicken through it's thickness so that it turns into 2 thinner breast pieces. Season both sides with salt.

In a large frying pan or skillet over medium high heat, drizzle one teaspoon of the oil.

Add the mushrooms and cook stirring regularly until moisture has evaporated and they&#039;re starting to turn golden. Set aside.

Add another teaspoon of oil to the pan, then cook the chicken 4-5 minutes each side until golden and the inside is cooked (notes). Set the chicken aside with the mushrooms.

Turn the heat down to low-medium and remove the pan from the heat to let it cool for a minute. Back on the heat, add the remaining oil and butter and let the butter melt.

Add the onion and garlic to the pan and cook stirring until the onion has softened.

Add the chicken stock, peppercorns and half the cracked pepper and let it come to a simmer. Scrape any brown bits off the bottom of the pan. Let it cook for 2 minutes until it reduces slightly.

Stir in the cream and bring it all back to a simmer for another 2 minutes.

Add the chicken and mushrooms, including any juices they&#039;ve released, back to the pan and cook for a further 2 minutes until fully heated through and the sauce has thickened a little.

Taste the sauce and add the extra 1/4 teaspoon salt and remaining cracked pepper to taste.

Serve with mash or pasta and steamed veggies
