Why You’ll Love This Creamy Garlic Mushroom Chicken
I’ve been on a serious creamy skillet meal kick lately, and thankfully, my family is fully on board. I usually have everything I need on hand (thanks, Costco ), so it’s easy to whip up a flavorful, satisfying dinner in under 30 minutes.
This Creamy Garlic Mushroom Chicken has quickly become a favorite. The sauce is rich, garlicky, and so good you’ll want to lick the pan. It tastes like something you’d order at a restaurant, but it’s made right at home. Want something with a similar creamy vibe? Try my Chicken Gloria and Smothered Chicken , which are also delicious! If you’re a fan of garlic and mushrooms, make my Tuscan Garlic Chicken Skillet .
I am not a huge mushroom fan, but if you stuff them, or put them in a sauce I absolutely love them! These mushrooms added a new texture and awesome flavor to the dish.
I mean just look at all of that creamy delicious garlic mushroom goodness!
I couldn’t believe how delicious this meal turned out. Quick, easy, delicious and full of such delicious flavor. What is not to love about this dish!? You guys are going to love it just as much as our family did!
