Ingredients:

4 oz. Light cream cheese, softened
8 oz. button mushrooms, halved
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon fresh chopped curly parsley

Add the cream cheese and stir until well blended.
Bring the chicken breasts back into the pan, then toss to coat with the sauce.
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top to garnish. Dish out!
Serve and enjoy!
