Next in a heavy based pan with olive oil and medium heat, brown the chicken on both sides then set aside.

Then, add a little more olive oil to the pan and fry down the onions until soft then add the mushrooms to cook and soften. Next add the white wine or chicken stock to deglaze the pan - stirring to allow the alcohol to evaporate if using wine.
