\"Chicken<\/a><\/p>\n

Sometimes I start out with a recipe that I “Absolutely have to make…..TODAY!”, I go to my fridge and pantry only to find that I don’t have all of the ingredients I need, and I start substituting, therefore creating something similar but kind of my own version of the original recipe and not at all something I can  post as being the original recipe.  Confused yet?  Well, this is one of those recipes.  I know my destination, but my method of getting there in no way resembles the original directions.  So here goes, my version of Chicken with Mushrooms:<\/p>\n

Chicken with Mushrooms<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n

2 Tbl Olive Oil<\/p>\n

4 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts<\/p>\n

1\/2 tsp Salt<\/p>\n

1\/2 tsp Freshly Ground Pepper<\/p>\n

2 Tbl Butter<\/p>\n

1 Tbl Fresh Thyme Leaves<\/p>\n

1 Cup Sliced Flat Mushrooms (you can substitute for whatever mushrooms you can get your hands on)<\/p>\n

1\/2 Cup Sherry (white wine or chicken stock)<\/p>\n

2 Tbl Fresh Parsley to garnish (if you remember to use it!)<\/p>\n

Directions:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Preheat your oven to 180C.<\/p>\n

Heat oil in your pan.<\/p>\n

Lightly sprinkle both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, keeping a little to season the sauce later.<\/p>\n

Add the chicken breasts to the pan and sear on both sides until the chicken is almost done.<\/p>\n

Remove chicken from the pan and place in a baking dish.<\/p>\n

Melt the butter in the same pan, add the mushrooms, thyme, and a pinch of salt and pepper.<\/p>\n

Saut\u00e9 until the mushrooms are tender, then add the Sherry and simmer for 3 minutes until the sauce reduces to about half.<\/p>\n

Pour the mushroom sauce over the chicken breasts and place in the oven until the chicken is cooked through.<\/p>\n

When the chicken is done, remove from the oven and serve smothered in the mushrooms and sauce.<\/p>\n

Garnish with parsley if using.<\/p>\n

I served mine with Lemon Parsley Couscous, snow peas and carrots and it was Devine!<\/p>\n

This recipe is an adaptation of a recipe found at http:\/\/barefeetinthekitchen.blogspot.com.au\/2013\/03\/chicken-with-mushrooms-recipe.html<\/a><\/p>\n

Notes:  This one is probably more for the adults and teenagers in the family, so I just cooked some extra chicken breasts in the pan for the kids before making the sauce and served them up with vegetables.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
