Salt and Pepper: Salt and pepper to taste. Sliced mushrooms: You can slice your own or buy presliced mushrooms. Button, baby portabella, and cremici work best.

Using full-fat ingredients for the sauce will give you the creamiest results. Half and half will be the best next thing to heavy creamy. This creates a super yummy creamy rich sauce that is unbelievably satisfying.
Butter: Use real butter not a butter substitue for the best flavor. Garlic cloves minced: Fresh garlic gives a pungent flavor that complilments the mushrooms.Flour: Thickens the sauce. Chicken broth: Chicken will give the best flavor. Heavy cream or half and half: Either will give flavor and creaminess. Grated parmesan cheese: Grate your own cheese so it will melt the best. Garlic powder: Adds extra flavor without bulk. Pepper and Salt: Add more or less to taste. Spinach: Chopped finely. You don’t want too much bulk.
How to Make Parmesan Garlic Mushroom Chicken
Cooking the chicken till it’s done and tender, but not overcooked and dry, is the goal here. Remember that chicken will continue to cook a bit after it’s removed from the pan. So you can remove the chicken right before it’s done and it will be juicy and tender.
Chicken Breasts: There are a few ways to ensure you get moist tender chicken. Pound skinless boneless chicken breasts till they are all the same thickness. This will ensure the chicken cooks at the same rate so it finishes at the same time. You can also pre-slice the chicken into bite-sized pieces. This will also make sure the chicken cooks at the same time. Chicken Thighs: You can also use boneless, skinless chicken thighs in this dish. The brown meat will create extra moist, tender chicken. When is the Chicken Done?: Use a meat thermometer to make sure the chicken reaches 160 degrees for white meat and 165 for dark meat. You can remove the chicken from the pan once it hits 158 degrees. Letting the chicken rest it will continue to both cook and redistribute the juices throughout the meat. Spinach: If you want, you can chop the spinach into bite sized pieces instead of leaving it big.
