Prep Time: 15 minutes Cook Time: 25 minutesIngredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter

- 1/2 cup dry white wine

Instructions: How to Cook Chicken Alexander
- Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness.
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge the chicken breasts in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they are golden brown and tender, about 5 minutes.
- Deglaze the skillet with the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Stir in the heavy cream and simmer for an additional 5 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
- Serve the Chicken Alexander hot with your choice of side dishes. Enjoy!
