Cooking

  4. Lower the heat and pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine. Add the Dijon mustard, whisking it into the sauce until fully incorporated.
  5. Gradually stir in the Asiago cheese, letting it melt and thicken the sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
  6. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, mixing it well with the creamy sauce and mushrooms. Let everything simmer together for a couple of minutes to heat through.
  7. Top with chopped parsley and additional grated Asiago cheese if desired. Serve hot.
