Chicken with mushrooms in creamy sauce
Description
The recipe won't take much time. I'm sharing the simplest version of a popular festive dish—chicken with mushrooms in cream. This dish is truly delicious, tender, and interesting, so much so that you wouldn't feel embarrassed serving it even for New Year's dinner. In my opinion, it's far more interesting than plain oven-roasted chicken. Plus, the fact that it takes less than half an hour to prepare is another great advantage, meaning you can start cooking it just as guests arrive. Serve hot.

Step 5
When the chicken pieces turn white, pour the cream into the skillet, add salt and spices, reduce the heat, and simmer for about 5 minutes. Once the sauce reaches the desired consistency, remove from heat, as the mushrooms and chicken are essentially already cooked.
