 Ingredients

 For the Chicken

4 chicken breast fillets (6–7 oz / 180–200 g each)

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp garlic powder 

1 tsp Italian seasoning 

Salt & freshly ground black pepper

 For the Creamy Mushroom Sauce

8 oz (250 g) mushrooms, sliced 

1 small onion, finely diced 

2 garlic cloves, minced 

1 tbsp butter 

1 cup (250 ml) heavy cream

⅔ cup (150 ml) chicken broth

1 tsp Dijon mustard

1 tsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley 

 Sides

700 g (about 1½ lbs) French fries

250 g mixed vegetables (peas, carrots & corn) 

Fresh lettuce, cucumber & tomatoes 

 Instructions

 Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the fries according to the package instructions until crispy and golden.

 Rub the chicken with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.

 Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 5–6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove and let rest.

 In the same skillet, melt the butter. Sauté the onion and garlic until fragrant.

 Add the mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes until browned.

 Pour in the chicken broth, then stir in the heavy cream and Dijon mustard. Simmer gently for 5 minutes. Add cornstarch if you'd like a thicker sauce.

 Cook the mixed vegetables according to the package directions or sauté briefly in butter.

 Serve the chicken topped with the creamy mushroom sauce alongside crispy fries, vegetables, and a fresh salad. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and enjoy!

 Tips

 Add a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce for even richer flavor.

 Flip the fries halfway through baking for extra crispiness.

 Swap the fries for potato wedges, mashed potatoes, or roasted potatoes if you prefer.

 Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
