Recipe Wednesday: Chicken in Creamy Mushroom Sauce & Toasted Garlic Potatoes

It's Recipe Wednesday!

You're going to love this one! It was taken from Beachbody's Meal Planner. It is so good! We had it for dinner last week, and we loved it! We added a strawberry spinach salad with raspberry vinaigrette too.


Chicken in Creamy Mushroom Sauce

Prep Time: 5 minutes or less
Total Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Serves : 4

Ingredients
1 3/4 pounds chicken breast, boneless/skinless, raw
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
6 tablespoons spread, buttery, low-fat
1 1/3 cups chicken broth, fat-free, low-sodium
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
4 teaspoons lemon juice
1/4 cup green onion, chopped
1/2 cup low-fat sour cream


Preparation
Cut chicken breast into 1-inch pieces; season with pepper. Set aside.
Melt spread in a medium skillet. Brown chicken on both sides, about 5 minutes, adding up to 2 tablespoons of broth, if necessary, to prevent sticking.
Add mushrooms, remaining broth, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook 15 to 20 minutes or until chicken is done. Add chopped onions and sour cream to the chicken mixture. Cook a few minutes more until hot.
Serve each person a 7 oz. piece of chicken with equally divided sauce.
