Why Creamy Mushroom Chicken is always a good idea
Everyone loves creamy mushroom chicken because pan fried chicken fillets smothered in a creamy sauce is delicious. I’m from Lahore, and it’s a well known fact that us Pakistani’s love our “chicken steak”. Steak doesn’t always mean a fine cut of beef cooked medium rare. It can mean a deliciously charred piece of chicken topped with an infused cream sauce, and that’s exactly what this is. It has restaurant level flavors and is ready in under 30 minutes from the comfort of your home.


This Chicken is a fan favorite
I made this recipe over on my Instagram stories, and without waiting for a detailed blog post I saw dozens of recreations pouring in! I’m telling you, the flavors are amazing in this, and that wilted spinach and hearty mushroom sauce is a winner. It’s fancy enough to serve to guests, but also easy enough to make so you can have it on a weeknight.


The cooking process is very simple for this Creamy Mushroom Chicken
This is a one pan recipe. You also don’t need to marinate the chicken or spend time chopping. The chicken goes straight into the pan with a sprinkle of salt and pepper, and I get pre-sliced baby Bella mushrooms and baby spinach so I don’t need to chop any vegetables. I measure out the spices before hand so I can dump them in with the mushrooms. The sauce is super is simple as well. You just add heavy cream to your pan and let it infuse with all the flavors.


What to serve this with
I love serving this over a bed of fettuccine or bowtie pasta. The sauce coats the pasta and it makes a great meal with the vegetables and chicken, or you can also serve this with steamed rice. A side of buttery potatoes or honey butter roasted vegetables makes a great combination as well.
