Steps
Sequence Step
1Place chicken breast between 2 sheets of waxed paper and pound them with the flat side of a meat pounder until thin. Set the chicken aside.
2Combine flour, pepper, oregano, and basil in a pie pan or shallow bowl. Mix well. Dredge the chicken breasts in the flour mixture and shake off any excess.
3Heat oil in a skillet and saute the chicken breasts until just cooked, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Lift out of skillet and set aside.
4Add mushrooms to the same skillet and saute over high heat for 2 minutes or until browned, stirring and tossing constantly. By cooking over high heat, the liquid is prevented from escaping and the mushrooms stay firm.
5Add the lemon juice and chicken stock to mushrooms and reduce liquid by 1/2.
6Serve sauce over chicken breasts.
