Thanks for sharing this recipe; it was another winner in my house. Sophisticated but still kid-friendly (my dd even ate the mushrooms). Very easy. Served with mashed potatoes on the side to soak up the extra sauce, yum.

Simple and delicious! This is a very good dish. The chicken is so moist and tender and, overall, the flavor is wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

SO quick, SO easy and certainly extremely delicious. I added rosemary and thyme to the chicken and mushrooms when I removed them from the pan. I used a low-fat cream which I've always found in no way compromises the creaminess of a dish. I sprinkled parsley and slivered almonds over the sauce. When an extra ten minutes is available, when I'm making this again (which I'll certainly be doing), I think I'll probably also add minced onion and garlic in step three. Thank you for sharing this recipe, Noo! Just love scrumptious recipes that are quick to make! And recipes that can be varied to accommodate what's on hand and the whim of the moment! Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders.
