A classic flavour combination, my version of chicken with a creamy mushroom sauce is comforting and delicious. This recipe is easy-to-make and perfect for a weeknight dinner, but it is also impressive enough to whip together for a special occasion. You can customise this recipe with your choice of sides. I like to serve this dish with sweet potato mash and steamed broccolini.
Sauce
Note 1 – A quick tip for fuss-free sweet potato mash is to prick it all over with a fork (I usually do 2-3 small sweet potatoes at a time), add it to a dish with a splash of water and microwave it for 10-15 minutes, turning once halfway. The sweet potato should be soft enough to easily prick with a fork when it’s cooked. If it’s not, cook it for longer in 3-5 minute intervals (how quickly it cooks depends on the strength of your microwave and the size of the sweet potato). Cut through the skin and scoop out the flesh using a spoon to serve.
MAKE AHEAD – This recipe is best cooked and served immediately or reheated using the instructions below.
LEFTOVERS – Refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave, taking care not to overheat and dry out the chicken. The sauce’s texture will change as the oil splits from the cream (the taste will remain unaffected). Not suitable for freezing.
