This is a yummy recipe because of the cream.Leave out the mushrooms if no one likes them.

                      makes the sauce richer in taste)

                       Trim and beat chicken breasts an dredge in flour
                       Saute chicken breasts in 2 tbsp of the olive oil

                          mushrooms to pan.

                          mushroom mixture and boil down until the sauce is
