INGREDIENTS:
- 3 cups mushrooms, thinly sliced
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 2 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- 4 - 6 oz chicken breasts, boneless skinless
- 1 can light coconut milk
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 1 Tbsp gluten-free all purpose flour (use regular flour if not gluten free)
- *Optional salt & pepper (to taste)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Using a large skillet, heat to medium/high heat on the stove.
- Melt the 1 Tbsp of butter, and add the sliced mushrooms, spreading around the pan evenly so they can brown.
- Once mushrooms browned on one side, add in the chopped rosemary. Cook down the mushrooms. In the last few minutes of cooking, add the chopped garlic. Season with salt & pepper if using.
- Remove the mushrooms from pan and set aside.
- To the same pan (don't clean it), add in the chicken breasts (season lightly with salt & pepper if using) and brown on both sides (about 5 min each side). Remove chicken breasts from pan and set aside on a plate. They won't be cooked through yet, that's ok.
- To the same pan, add the other 1 Tbsp of butter, and 1 Tbsp of flour and whisk it together to make a rue. Cook the butter and flour together for about 20 seconds on medium/high heat. Then slowly add the can of coconut milk, while still whisking. Once its the consistency of a sauce that's thickened, add back the mushrooms, then also add back in the chicken breasts.
- Allow it all to simmer together on low/medium heat for another 6-7 minutes flipping the chicken occasionally until the chicken breasts are cooked through.
- Serve with extra sauce poured on each serving.
