Step by step recipe

1	Prepare 400 g broccoli.
2	Prepare and slice 200 g mushrooms.
3	Prepare 1 shallot.
4	Slice 200 g chicken breast (take no notice of the strange colour of this chicken breast in the photo. It was frozen and I thawed it by poaching it in chicken stock).
5	Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large saucepan then add the chopped shallot, salt and pepper. Cook for 1 or 2 minutes.
6	Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring regularly. Note: if the mushrooms you are using give off a lot of water, drain this off and discard it to speed up the cooking.
7	Set aside on a plate.
8	Using the same pan, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil, then add the chicken.
9	Cook until lightly browned...
10	...then add the broccoli and mushrooms, salt and pepper. Stir well.
11	The dish is ready when the broccoli is heated through.Check seasoning. You can add 1 knob butter at the last minute, if you wish.

Remarks

For added flavour, squeeze lemon juice over the mushrooms after cooking.
