This easy chicken and mushroom dish simmered in a white gravy is pure comfort. Using rotisserie chicken makes this a simple, 20 minute weeknight dinner. Extra bonus? The whole meal comes together in a single pan. Dinner, my friends, is served.
Get all the prep done before you start cooking: mince the garlic and thinly slice the mushrooms.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high and add mushrooms. Cook until they start to brown and begin to release some moisture, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1 tbsp butter and cook until golden brown and tender, about 2 minutes. Lower the heat to medium, add garlic and spices. Cook for 1 minute or until fragrant. Remove from skillet.
Reduce heat to low and melt the remaining butter. Add flour and stir continuously until a paste forms, this is called a roux. Cook for 2 minutes. Add broth to the roux, stirring while you pour, until you get a smooth sauce. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring continuously.
Add cream and bring to a boil. Add shredded chicken and mushrooms, stir to combine. Simmer over medium, for 3 minutes, or until the chicken is heated through. Add lemon juice and adjust salt.
Garnish with chopped parsley and some extra black pepper. Enjoy!
