Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Season chicken liberally with salt and pepper.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the chicken breasts and brown the meat on both sides (about 6-7 minutes per side).
- Transfer the chicken to an 11 x 7-inch baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray (or another similar size dish that accommodates the chicken).
- Add the mushrooms to the skillet and sauté until tender (about 5 minutes).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together soup and wine. Stir in the mushrooms.
- Pour the soup mixture over the chicken. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
- Serve with rice or noodles and garnish with fresh parsley.
Notes
- COOK'S TIPS AND RECIPE VARIATIONS:
- You don't have to worry about cooking the chicken all of the way through at this point since it will finish baking in the oven.
- I use an 8-ounce container of sliced mushrooms as a shortcut. This way, I don't even have to get out a cutting board for my easy chicken with mushroom sauce recipe!
- Sauté the mushrooms in the same skillet that you used for the chicken. Don't even wipe out the skillet because the oil and pan drippings from the chicken give the mushrooms even more flavor!
- I like a dry chardonnay for this creamy wine sauce, but you can use any white wine that you like to drink! For a thicker sauce, use just 1/2 cup of wine. For a thinner sauce, increase to 1 full cup of wine.
- You might need less time in the oven for smaller pieces of chicken or more time for larger pieces. You know the meat is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
- Adjust the seasonings to your liking. This is a simple 4-ingredient recipe, but adding your favorite seasonings allows you to customize the flavors. Season the chicken with onion powder, garlic powder, paprika for color, or a hint of cayenne pepper for spice.
- Use whatever kind of mushrooms you like. Anything from white button mushrooms to Portobello mushrooms will taste delicious. To add flavor to the mushrooms, saute them with some butter or chicken broth.
- Don't over-brown the chicken in the skillet. The chicken will continue to cook in the oven, so we don't want to overcook it in the pan. You only need to brown the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side, at the most. Smaller pieces of chicken will cook quicker.
- Add grated Parmesan cheese and lemon juice to the velvety mushroom sauce for an even more flavorful sauce. The pairing of Parmesan cheese, lemon, and mushrooms pairs perfectly with chicken!
