Grilled Chicken with Creamy Grits & Mushroom Sauce

I love this chicken recipe! The earthy flavors of the herbs, pancetta and mushrooms make this comfort food for me! xo

In a gallon zip lock bag:
1/4 C Olive Oil
1 T Chopped Garlic
1 T Chopped Fresh Rosemary
1 t Salt
1/2 t Pepper
3 lbs Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts & Thighs

Marinate at least 4 hours can be marinated overnight.

For Sauce:

1 1/2 C Beef Broth
1 1/2 Chicken Broth
1 C Dry White Wine
3 T Cornstarch

Boil beef broth, chicken broth & white wine in a heavy medium size saucepan until reduced to about 2 cups, about 15 minutes, take 1/4 C out and add cornstarch, stir until smooth and add to hot mixture.

3 ounces Pancetta, cubed, available in the deli section
8 ounces Mushrooms, Sliced
3/4 C Whipping Cream
1 T Fresh Sage Leaves, sliced

Cook pancetta in a large heavy skillet over medium high heat until crisp and golden, about 3 minutes.  Add mushrooms to same skillet and saute until golden, about 4 minutes. Add stock mixture and cream to skillet and simmer until reduced to sauce consistency, about 5 minutes. Mix in sage. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Meanwhile, remove chicken from marinade and grill, about 12 minutes on each side. Add chicken to sauce.

Creamy Grits
