BAKED CHICKEN AND MUSHROOMS

Baked Chicken and Mushrooms image

I made up this dish years ago, and it still remains the family's favorite healthy baked chicken recipes. It's a fast weeknight meal, but the fresh mushrooms and sherry make it special enough for a weekend dinner party. -Lise Prestine of South Bend, Indiana
