Instructions
Place the chicken breasts on a chopping board and cover with parchment paper or plastic wrap.
Gently flatten out the chicken with a meat mallet (I just use a rolling pin), until approximately 1cm thick.
Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
Cook the chicken in a hot pan for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add a splash of oil and add the mushrooms.
Cook until golden brown. Add the garlic, thyme and chilli flakes and cook until fragrant.
Pour in the cream and lemon juice then allow to simmer for 5 minutes. Season to taste and add the Parmesan.
Add the chicken back into the pan and allow to simmer for another 3-5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
Serve with your choice of side dishes.
