Sear the chicken in the olive oil butter mixture for 2-3 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Remove to a plate and set aside.
Add the chopped shallots and mushrooms to the pan and sauté for 4-5 minutes until the mushrooms are golden brown. Deglaze with the French Red wine and add chicken stock. Reduce the liquid until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.

Use a very sharp knife to carefully split the chicken open in half the long way - to butterfly it into a single large, thin piece of chicken.
