Southern Creamy Mushroom Chicken image

One of my favorite dishes, compiled from 3 other recipes. The sauce is rich and hearty - perfect for guests or good ole comfort food. Serve on a bed of rice, top with a chicken breast and then spoon the gravy over all. Mushrooms and onion sitting on top make for a nicer presentation.

8 ounces mushrooms, sliced

Steps:

  • In same skillet, Saute Onion, Garlic in 2 Tablespoons of White Wine until tender and wine has almost evaporated.
  • Spoon onion mixture evenly over each chicken breast.
  • Gently spoon mushroom soup over chicken pieces and onion mixture.
  • Add Cream and remaining White Wine, pouring evenly in-between chicken pieces.
  • Using soup can, add Water and Worcestershire Sauce, mixing well with any leftover soup.
  • Pour gently over soup covered chicken.
  • Cover and SIMMER on Low to medium low heat for 25-30 minutes, checking several times.
  • In saute skillet, add sliced mushrooms and cook until they begin to slightly darken.
  • Spoon sauted mushrooms on top of chicken the last 10 minutes of cooking.
  • For plenty of sauce, make sure it doesn't cook down, lower temperature and add more water, cream, or wine if necessary.
  • Check for tenderness with a fork.
  • Serve over rice.
