Tender and juicy chicken is cooked with browned mushrooms and garlic and then coated with the most amazing creamy sauce. Leftovers of this dish almost never exist in my house, it’s just that good. I love this type of meal because it tastes and looks like something you ordered at a restaurant, but it’s way easier to pull off than it looks. This dish is great for serving guests, or for just filling your family’s bellies at dinner time. If you like this recipe, you’ll also love my Marry Me Chicken, which features a sundried tomato cream sauce, and Creamy Lemon Chicken with an irresistible lemon and parmesan cream sauce. Boursin Chicken, Teriyaki Chicken Stir Fry and Honey Garlic Chicken are some other amazing one-pan chicken meals that you have to try. Want to make this meal in the Instant Pot instead? Check out my well-loved Instant Pot Chicken With Mushrooms recipe. Add this simple creamy mushroom chicken recipe to your weeknight dinner rotation. It’s never let me down when it’s time to feed my family or guests something really amazing. Or cut your own: To do this, place a chicken breast down flat on a cutting board. Hold one hand flat on top of the breast, and use a sharp knife to cut the breast in half, parallel to the cutting board. Typically, that is all you need to do! The cutlets should be about ¼ inch in thickness. If they are thicker than that, use a meat mallet to pound them down thinner. Add Flavor: a teaspoon of dijon mustard will elevate the flavor of this dish a notch. It’s not necessary, but a delicious option if you want to try it. Add Wine: Instead of deglazing the pan with chicken stock, use a dry white wine. This will give a more sophisticated flavor. Use a Large Skillet: I’m in love with this stainless steel skillet for making skillet chicken meals like this one. A cast iron skillet also works really well. Other tools that you need are a heat resistant spatula and a good set of kitchen tongs. Try making this easy Garlic Butter Pasta, or making brown rice in the Instant Pot. You might also like to make my Chicken Mushroom Pasta recipe, which combines tender chicken bites with mushrooms and pasta, all in one pan! With a Veggie Side: A simple vegetable side dish will complement this creamy garlic chicken perfectly. Try steamed broccoli in the instant pot, sauteed spinach, or fresh green beans. For something a bit fancier, try Roasted Frozen Brussels Sprouts or Bacon Wrapped Asparagus. With a Salad: Fresh greens are perfect with this savory and creamy mushroom chicken. Some of my favorites are this Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad, a Classic Caesar Salad, and a Simple Tossed Green Salad. Don’t forget dessert! This Berry Bread Pudding comes together quickly and makes the perfect ending to this amazing meal. © Little Sunny Kitchen
