How to Make Chicken with Mushrooms in White Wine Sauce
Cut the chicken breast in about 1” pieces. Place the 3/4 cup flour and seasoned salt in a shallow dish and mix together. Add half the chicken pieces and toss until well coated with flour mixture.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and half the butter. Saute half the chicken until golden brown. Remove and set aside. Repeat with remaining chicken, an additional 2 tablespoons of oil, and remaining butter.
Add the last tablespoon of oil to the pan and add the garlic and mushrooms. Cook until mushrooms are wilted and darkened. Sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons flour and continue cooking, stirring constantly, for one minute.
Slowly add the white wine and chicken broth. Cook, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened.
Add the Parmesan cheese and stir until melted. Stir in the half and half or cream.
Return the chicken the pan. Cover and cook 3-4 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.

What is the best dry white wine to use for cooking? I have seen some recipes say white vermouth, but don’t really care for that unless it is in a Martini. Do not drink hard liquor any more, unless it is a special occasion at someone else’s home.
Love Lana’s recipes.
This definitely looks like the perfect weeknight dinner…simple enough, but rich and full of flavor! This is a must-try.
I love dishes that are deceptively simple but so full of flavor. What a great option for making chicken special!
What a fabulous weeknight dinner. Perfect for Friday night, when I want something nicer than my ordinary weeknight fare, but don’t have the energy (or time) for a full blown, multi-hour main course. And honestly, I could easily serve this to company on a Saturday night too:)
This is a dish I would absolutely love. Chicken, mushrooms and white wine. I love the elegance and ease of this dish. Fabulous!
Thank you for sharing – you just solved my “what’s for dinner” problem for tonight!
I love a dish like this–easy and fancy at the same time! And yes, you had my attention from the very beginning!
This looks just wonderful – so comforting and so delicious!!
Oh, boy, do I need to add this to our menu! An excuse for me to eat all the mushrooms (hubby fakes that he’s allergic to avoid them) and for both of us to have a fabulous entree!
