Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Provençal Chicken with Mushrooms and Provolone.
Step 1
To start your delicious chicken dish, grab a large nonstick skillet and warm up some olive oil and butter over medium heat.
Step 2
While that’s heating, take a bowl and mix together 2 1/2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, a spoonful of Dijon mustard, and some freshly chopped garlic.
Step 3
Give it a good stir until everything is well combined.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to add the chicken breast halves to the bowl, ensuring they’re fully coated in that flavorful marinade.
Step 5
Once your chicken is nicely marinated, transfer it to the skillet and let it cook for about 5 to 8 minutes on each side.
Step 6
You’ll know it’s ready when the chicken is no longer pink inside.
Step 7
Once cooked, move the chicken to a platter and keep it warm while you prepare the sauce.
Step 8
Next, pour in 1/3 cup of chicken stock into the skillet, making sure to scrape the bottom to lift any delicious browned bits left behind.
Step 9
This is where the flavor magic happens! Add in some chopped shallots and cremini mushrooms, stirring occasionally for about 5 minutes until the mushrooms become tender and inviting.
Step 10
To deepen the flavor, stir in another 1/3 cup of chicken stock along with herbes de Provence and 1 1/2 teaspoons of balsamic vinegar.
Step 11
Let this simmer for an additional 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms turn a rich, deep brown.
Step 12
Now, it’s time to bring everything together.
Step 13
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and place half a slice of provolone cheese on top of each piece.
Step 14
Cover the skillet and let the cheese melt into gooey perfection.
Step 15
Once it’s all melted and bubbly, serve your chicken alongside the savory mushroom mixture.
Step 16
Enjoy the delightful blend of flavors and the satisfaction of a home-cooked meal!.
