    Start by gathering all your ingredients so you're ready to go. This will make the cooking process smoother and faster.

    2

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes until hot.

    3

    While the oil heats, cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Once the oil is ready, add the chicken to the skillet and season it with salt and pepper. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.

    4

    After the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and set aside on a plate.

    5

    In the same skillet, add the chopped garlic and sliced mushrooms. Sauté them for about 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are browned and tender.

    6

    Next, pour in 120 milliliters of white wine to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any bits stuck to the bottom. Let it simmer for 3 minutes to reduce.

    7

    Add back the cooked chicken to the skillet, and stir in the butter. Let everything cook together for another 2 minutes until the butter is melted and coats the chicken and mushrooms.

    8

    Finally, garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

    Serve hot and enjoy this delightful Poulet Sauté!
