Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a heavy skillet, heat ghee or olive oil on medium until shimmery.

  • Remove chicken, set aside on a plate with a paper towel.
  • Add onion to pan, cook until slightly browned.
  • Add mushrooms to pan and continue cooking until they are slightly browned.
  • Add garlic, thyme, stir to incorporate.
  • Add chicken stock and add chicken back to pan.
  • Cook, uncovered, until sauce has thickened and chicken reaches an internal temperature of 175 degrees.
  • Remove from stove and let the chicken rest and carryover cook to 180 degrees, about 5 minutes.
  • Plate and serve!
