Every now and then my husband will look across the table and give me a certain look when he takes the first bite of a recipe I’m testing and I know I’ve found a winner! This amazing Parmesan Mushroom Chicken is one of those recipes!

Why I love this recipe

I adapted this recipe from one of my favorite recipes when I didn’t have all of the called for ingredients on hand, and I was so excited that it turned out amazing despite the changes I made!

The strong flavor of the Parmesan cheese blends perfectly with the smooth, flavorful mushrooms.  It whips up in just 30 minutes and tastes like a gourmet restaurant-quality meal.

I serve mine over pasta but you could eat it on it’s own or over the starch of your choice-pasta, rice, or even potatoes! (For low carb diets, serve over zucchini or spaghetti squash!)

  1. Sorry, but I’m a very beginner cook, so in addition to how much chicken, other specs like skinless or boneless would help. It sounds delicious and I can’t wait to try it!

    Love your blog!!
