Val-Dieu chicken supremes with mushrooms

Serves: 4
Prep Time: 15 min
Cook Time: 30–35 min

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken supremes (or skin-on boneless chicken breasts)

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 2 tbsp butter

  • 1 shallot, finely chopped

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • 200g (7 oz) mushrooms (button or mixed), sliced

  • 100 ml (1/2 cup) dry white wine

  • 150 ml (2/3 cup) heavy cream

  • 100g (3.5 oz) Val-Dieu cheese, cubed (rind removed if preferred)

  • Fresh thyme or parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Sear the Chicken:

    • Season chicken supremes with salt and pepper.

    • Heat olive oil and 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.

    • Sear the chicken, skin-side down first, for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden brown.

    • Remove and set aside (they’ll finish cooking in the sauce).

  2. Sauté the Mushrooms:

    • In the same pan, melt the remaining 1 tbsp butter.

    • Add chopped shallots and garlic, cook 1–2 mins until fragrant.

    • Add mushrooms and sauté until browned and softened (about 5–7 mins).

  3. Deglaze and Simmer:

    • Pour in the white wine and let it reduce by half (2–3 mins).

    • Lower heat, stir in the cream and the cubed Val-Dieu cheese.

    • Stir gently until cheese melts into a smooth, creamy sauce.

  4. Finish the Chicken:

    • Return the chicken to the pan, cover, and let simmer on low heat for 10–15 mins, until chicken is cooked through (internal temp: 165°F / 74°C).

  5. Serve:

    • Plate with sauce and mushrooms spooned generously over the top.

    • Garnish with fresh thyme or chopped parsley.
