Cooking Steps
  1. Pound the boneless skinless chicken breasts to an even thickness and slice into serving pieces.
  2. In a large skillet, combine butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter melts completely.
  3. Coat the chicken pieces in seasoned flour and sauté for about 5 minutes per side until golden brown.
  4. In the same skillet, add halved mushrooms and minced garlic, sautéing until mushrooms are browned and tender.
  5. Pour in dry white wine, scraping the bottom of the skillet to incorporate browned bits. Let simmer for a couple of minutes.
