Creamy Mushroom Chicken features a mushroom sauce over boneless chicken breasts. Make this easy chicken mushroom recipe in just one pan!
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 3 chicken breasts about 1 ½ pounds, sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 1 cup baby bella mushrooms sliced
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 1/2 cup Italian salad dressing
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, salt, and pepper to the pan. Cook until the chicken is golden brown and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan. Once the oil is heated, add in the mushrooms and cook until they are golden brown.
- Stir in the cream cheese and Italian dressing. Once the cream cheese is melted, add the chicken back into the pan and cook just until the chicken is warmed.
Notes
If you want to thin it out, you can add some chicken stock until you get the desired texture of the sauce. Just make sure you’re adding a little at a time, so the cream cheese doesn’t separate.
You can store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days for the best freshness.
You can add a splash of chicken stock when you reheat it to make sure the cream cheese isn’t too thick.
