How to Make This Gluten Free Easy Chicken Recipe

This Creamy Mushroom Chicken on Rice is more than just a meal; it’s a warm hug on a plate that reminds me of my childhood. Try it out for your next dinner, and trust me, it’ll be a new family favorite in no time!

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups of sliced mushrooms (your choice – button, cremini, or a mix)
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 1 can of gluten free cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 5 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon ground dried sage
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 cups of cooked rice (preferably a fluffy variety like basmati or jasmine)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven: heat oven to 425°F.
  2. Prep the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large, oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown on both sides. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Sauté the Veggies: In the same skillet, add the chopped onions and cook until they’re translucent. Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, and sauté until the mushrooms are tender and browned. Add the wine and simmer until nearly evaporated.
  4. Make It Creamy: Mix the soup, cheese, green onions and sage together in a small bowl.
  5. Combine and Cook: Return the chicken to the skillet, nestling it into the mushrooms. Cover with the soup mixture. Bake, uncovered in the preheated oven until cooked through, about 20 minutes. Cover and simmer on low heat for about 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  6. Serve It Up: Spoon a generous portion of fluffy rice onto each plate, top with a chicken breast, and ladle over the creamy mushroom sauce. Garnish with chopped parsley.
  7. Enjoy! Sit back, relax, and enjoy this creamy, comforting, and gluten-free masterpiece.
