This just had to be the first recipe posted. I have made this so many times, I no longer need to consult my recipe card. I have also found several shortcuts and will include those in the recipe. For a couple of years, this is one of the two meals that our daughter, Sophia, would eat (the other was tacos). This recipe came from a cookbook that my mother had - I can't remember which one. One time when I was home from college, I was looking for something new to make and have been making this ever since!
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
½ stick butter
2 Tbsp. dry white wine
Juice & grated rind of 1 lemon
¼ tsp. salt
pepper to taste
1 c. heavy whipping cream
grated parmesan cheese
1 pkg. sliced mushrooms
Melt butter in skillet, cut the chicken up into bite-size pieces and brown it until no longer pink (~10 minutes). Remove chicken and put it in an oven-safe dish and set aside. Pre-heat the oven to broil. Sauté the mushrooms in skillet and then put them over the chicken. Add lemon juice, peel and white wine to skillet – cook over medium heat about 1 minute, then add salt & pepper and gradually pour in cream, stirring constantly until hot – do not boil. Put parmesan cheese over mushrooms and chicken, pour cream sauce on top, broil until slightly brown. Serve over your favorite kind of pasta or with mashed potatoes.

Doesn't this recipe call for ground white pepper? ED.
yes, "technically" :) I just use regular though.
shouldn't that say "1 [lemon]"?
remember when you made this for us in Alabama? :)
have you ever tried this with your lemon rice? OH. MY. WORD. I did. I loved it!!!!!!!! this is such a freakin' good recipe! I've made it a million times too! I totally don't use a recipe and I totally do major shortcuts and I serve it with rice sometimes...I guess we started out serving it with rice then we went to potatoes then when we got sick of that I tried the angel hair pasta and loved it!!!! now I'm back to rice again! hahaha
yes! thank you for being my editor! imagine leaving out the lemon?!
