Chicken w/ Cremini Cream sauce

Looking to jazz up your weeknight chicken dish? This is a very easy sauce to add to your usual grilled chicken.

Ingredients:

 4 (6oz) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
8 oz small cremini mushrooms, quartered (I just bought the bag of sliced cremini mushrooms from Trader Joes)
3 scallions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup lower sodium chicken broth
2 tbl reduced fat cream cheese (I added a little more than that to the sauce to make it more creamy)
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary (I used about a tablespoon of fresh rosemary)

Steps:

Season chicken with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper.

In a large skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.

Add the mushrooms, scallions and remaining 1 teaspoon oil to the same skillet. Cook over medium heat, tossing frequently, until the mushrooms have wilted, about 3 minutes.

Add the brother, cream cheese, rosemary and remaining salt. stir until the cream cheese melts, about 1 minute. 

Return the chicken to the pan and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook until the chicken is cooked through and still juicy, about 5 minutes.
