Take-out Tuesday, Chicken with Sherry Mushroom Sauce
This is a crazy busy time of year,
are you ready for your upcoming celebrations?
I spent yesterday looking at my lists and menus
and checking them twice
I haven’t wrapped all my gifts which is slightly naughty,
BUT I’ve been very nice 🙂
Here is an elegant dinner that is easy to make,
and great for these busy December days
The prep takes under 10 minutes
and you can even make it a day or two in advance
Boneless chicken tenders, mushrooms, cream of mushroom soup*
sherry and sour cream or yogurt
*If you don’t want to use canned Cream of Mushroom soup,
you can see a recipe for making a substitute here
Saute sliced mushrooms in butter and olive oil
and place atop chicken in a greased baking dish
Cover with a sauce mix of sour cream, mushroom soup and sherry~
it’s the sherry that gives it the dreamy flavor
Cover and refrigerate until baking up to 1-2 days ahead of time
Bake at 275 degrees for 3 hours and serve it over pasta or rice
A little Parmesan garnish~
Dinner is served!
