Servings: persons

2 (5 ounce) chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon canola oil or 1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium shallot, minced
1 cup shiitake mushroom caps, thinly sliced (can substitute portobello, porcini or oyster mushrooms)
2 tablespoons dry vermouth or 2 tablespoons dry white wine
1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons heavy cream
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives or 2 tablespoons scallion tops

1
Season chicken with pepper and salt on both sides.
2
Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning once or twice and adjusting the heat to prevent burning, until brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165u00b0F, 12 to 16 minutes. Transfer to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
3
Add shallot to the pan and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. (I like to let them carmelize.) Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 2 minutes. Pour in vermouth (or wine); simmer until almost evaporated, scraping up any browned bits, about 1 minute. Pour in broth and cook until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in cream and chives (or scallions); return to a simmer. Return the chicken to the pan, turn to coat with sauce and cook until heated through, about 1 minute.
