Tender and juicy chicken in the most amazing creamy and delicious garlic mushroom sauce! This makes one incredible 30 minute meal!
I have been pretty obsessed with creamy delicious skillet meals lately. But my family LOVES them. I always have most of these ingredients on hand. I buy chicken and heavy cream in bulk from Costco and I have a delicious real ready in under 30 minutes.
This Creamy Garlic Mushroom Chicken became one of our favorites. You guys are going to LOVE the creamy sauce over the chicken. It is full of flavor and is thick and creamy and so delicious. This is so good that it tastes like it came straight from a restaurant!
I am not a huge mushroom fan, but if you stuff them, or put them in a sauce I absolutely love them! These mushrooms added a new texture and awesome flavor to the dish.
I mean just look at all of that creamy delicious garlic mushroom goodness!
I couldn’t believe how delicious this meal turned out. Quick, easy, delicious and full of such delicious flavor. What is not to love about this dish!? You guys are going to love it just as much as our family did!

Delicious. Added spinach also!
THANK YOU! I cook chicken ALL the time and this was a great, new, EASY recipe. Delicious!
I made this awesome recipe but added my touch. I season chicken prior to cooking. Added extra heavy cream and tablespoon of butter. At the end I added capers and spinach. Absolutely awesome.
This recipe has been in my rotation for several months now. Simple, elegant and delicious. I’ve made it for friends, kids, everyone loves it. I’ve made it with milk, left out the spinach (accidentally) and it holds up. It reheats and freezes well. I love it!!!
Really good recipe! I didn’t have any Parmesan cheese or cream cheese but this recipe was still amazing!
OMG, this dish was AMAZING! All I did differently was salt and pepper the chicken while it was cooking (not much, a sprinkle) and the same with the mushrooms/garlic. The sauce I did exactly as described.
I fixed some angel hair pasta for it to go over and it was, IMO, restaurant quality. I’d pay for this dish and be happy.
I needed a quick and easy chicken dish I could triple for a meal train delivery. The family loved it! I made it tonight for my family and they raved! It is so tasty and easy. Thank you for a great recipe!
Omg what a fabulous recipe!!! I loved the taste of the mushrooms! A quick go to when time is short. This is a must must try!
Another great recipe! Thank you for sharing this one. I can’t wait to try this at home. My family will surely love this since they love mushrooms because it is healthy. Looking forward to another delicious meal of mushrooms.
uhhhh this is the best creamy garlic mushroom recipe IVE EVER READ AND TESTED.. me and my lady ran it yesterday and man it is a good one! thank you for sharing would love to read more from you
Lovely Recipe. Just Made this for today’s dinner. Everyone Loved this. Thanks For Having the Recipe. Wendy X
no kidding right .. i made this yesterday and me and my lady couldnt stop for double timers!
OMG this was soooo good! I am on WW so I used the 1/3 less fat cream cheese and substituted fat free half and half for the heavy cream to keep the point values down. My only regret is that I didn’t double the recipe. I won’t make that mistake again! I’ll prob add some spinach and/or asparagus next time to boost the nutrients. Thank you for sharing this, it’s my new favorite!!
So yummy! But could we have the nutritional info please???
I am in the process of adding nutritional information to each recipe. I will have them done soon. I like to use myfitnesspal.com for any nutritional information.
I made this tonight and it was beyond delicious!!!! My super picky 6 yr old even ate it up! Definitely going to be making it again
What a winner of a recipe, simple and soooooo delicious! Thank u for sharing!
Yummy but there is no mention of spinach like the video shows?
The spinach is optional. You are welcome to add the spinach after the cream sauce is made and let it soak in with the chicken. Hope that helps!
