Chicken Mushroom

Who doesn’t love this flavor bomb? Many readers have been writing in asking how to simplify this Cheesy Garlic Butter Mushroom Stuffed Chicken recipe. Of COURSE, I’m up for that and here it is! Garlic butter and mushrooms go hand in hand already, for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. BUT throw in some juicy, golden chicken thighs and WHOA have mercy!

Boneless Chicken Thigh Recipe

We decided to use chicken thighs for this recipe because dark meat suits the natural juices released from mushrooms. Although we use chicken thighs, you can substitute them with skinless, boneless breasts or chicken tenders if you like, and follow the rest of the directions. This is an extremely forgiving recipe!

Simple Ingredients

With only a handful of ingredients, you’ll have one of the BEST and easiest chicken recipes hit your dinner table.

Once your chicken is seared, move on to your garlic butter mushrooms! Cook them in the same pan your chicken was in, scraping up any browned bits from the base of the pan for extra flavor in the mushrooms.

Garlic Mushrooms

The simple sauce of the buttery garlic mushrooms mixed with the seared chicken is what makes this Garlic Mushroom Chicken Thighs recipe amazing.

  • Butter — we use unsalted to better adjust the saltiness in the recipe
  • Garlic — use fresh or bottled minced garlic. Fresh is best!
  • Mushrooms — brown or white mushrooms
  • Herbs — we love thyme, rosemary, and parsley! Not a fan of those? Use whatever herbs YOU like!
