How to Make Chicken Breasts With Mushrooms Swiss Cheese And White Wine

  1. Season chicken breasts generously with salt, white pepper, and nutmeg.
  2. Heat butter and olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until lightly browned on both sides (about 3-4 minutes per side).
  4. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  5. Add sliced mushrooms and shallots to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  6. Pour in white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  7. Return chicken breasts to the skillet.
  8. Bring the liquid to a simmer, then cover and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  9. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside, keeping warm.
  10. Increase heat to medium-high and bring the sauce to a boil. Reduce the sauce by half, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  11. Stir in shredded Swiss cheese, heavy cream, and paprika.
  12. Cook, stirring constantly, until the cheese is melted and the sauce is thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
  13. Season the sauce with salt to taste.
  14. Return chicken to the skillet and coat with the sauce.
  15. Garnish with halved cherry tomatoes and sliced green onions before serving.
