To be honest, Ellie and I are not really huge fans of chicken meat (unless we’re talking organic, farm chicken; that tastes amazing!). But after making this easy skillet chicken I have a hunch we’ll both consider making this dish again, next time we pass by the store. We made this chicken mushroom skillet for just the two of us so it’s quite small (though we got to serve it with two meals so it was more than plenty for the two of us). Feel free to adjust as needed for your family.

    This sounds so rich and delicious! I can’t wait to give it a go!

  3. It TOTALLY TICKS ME OFF when a blogger doesn’t offer an email option on their site!!! Not everyone cares to use the social media options which you offer.

    1. Hi Ang. Thanks for your comment. However there are about a zillion email options on the site so unless this is actually a spam comment, I fail to understand how you possibly have missed all that!
