Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

2 cups portabella mushrooms, sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 tablespoon dried rosemary)

1 cup chicken broth

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Salt and pepper, to taste

Zest of 1 lemon

Lemon wedges, for garnish

Fresh rosemary sprigs, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prep the Chicken: Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and half of the chopped rosemary.

    Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken thighs and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

      Sauté the Mushrooms: In the same skillet, add the sliced portabella mushrooms and sauté for about 5 minutes or until they are tender and browned, stirring occasionally.

        Add Aromatics: Add the minced garlic and the remaining rosemary to the mushrooms in the skillet. Cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

          Deglaze the Skillet: Pour in the chicken broth and balsamic vinegar, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let it simmer for a few minutes to reduce the liquid slightly.

            Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked chicken thighs to the skillet. Spoon some of the mushroom broth mixture over them, then allow everything to simmer together for about 5 more minutes, or until heated through.

              Finish and Serve: Stir in the lemon zest just before serving. Plate the chicken and top with the portabella mushroom mixture. Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh rosemary sprigs.
