Creamy Garlic Chicken + Mushrooms
Creamy, Cozy, and Utterly delicious!
Tender flavorful chicken thighs, umami earthy mushrooms, and a rich, creamy garlicky sauce that’s simply irresistible.
FAST Comfort Food? Yes Please!
It’s surprisingly quick & easy to make and can be ready in just under 30 minutes!
Looks and tastes a lot fancier than it really is! My FAVORITE type of meal!
This impressive dish is easy to make and perfect for a weeknight dinner or special occasion.
With only a few ingredients and simple prep, you’ll be enjoying this mouthwatering meal in no time!
Use ANY unsweetened/plain milk of your choice.
My personal favorite for this dish is unsweetened coconut milk, almond milk, or cashew milk.
Any unsweetened nut milk, coconut milk, or high-quality grass-fed cow’s milk/cream all work really well here.
Use what you personally like and have on hand.
Whatās your favorite mushroom: button, portobello, shiitake, chanterelles, or ā¦?
Mushrooms have some pretty unique health benefits!
A big example: because they absorb vitamin D from the sun while theyāre growing, they pass it along to you when you eat them ā¦ making them one of the few natural food sources of this important micronutrient!
Plus, mushrooms are loaded with antioxidants and other nutrients that offer protection against diseases like cancer.
And they may also help you balance your blood sugar and gut health, and can be great for your thyroid and metabolism, too.
Plus, their meaty āumamiā flavor and texture make them a good addition to stir-fries, salads, soups, and more!
Whatās your take on mushrooms? Love, like, or leave them?
