Preparation

Preheat oven to 375 °F (190 °C).

In a skillet, heat butter and oil, then sear the poultry breasts on both sides. Place in an ovenproof dish, season with salt and pepper and continue cooking in the oven for 15 to 18 minutes, depending on the thickness of the breasts.

In the same pan, sauté the shallot and garlic in 1 tbsp (15 mL) of butter. Add the mushrooms and cook for 4,5 minutes until tender. Set aside.

Melt remaining butter in the pan and add the flour, mixing to a paste.

Whisk in the wine and broth. Bring to the boil and simmer until thick. Mix in the milk or cream, and simmer gently for 2 minutes longer. Remove from heat and mix in the cheese and herbs, then season to taste. Add the cooked mushrooms when the cheese has melted completely. Reheat over a low heat if necessary.
