Chicken with mushrooms in a pan
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. I personally like this stovetop chicken with mushrooms recipe because you control the appearance and consistency yourself—if you simmer the cream a little less, you'll get a sort of mushroom sauce for the chicken. If you reduce it well and then bake it in the oven, it turns into something resembling a casserole. And if, for some reason, you don't have access to an oven, I'll tell you—simply serve the finished dish as is.

4. Now place the mushrooms on top of the chicken on the dish. I usually bake it for a few more minutes to form a delicious crust, but this step is optional.
