If there’s one thing we’re not crazy about in this house, it’s dishes. That’s why we love one-pan meals, and this recipe for chicken and mushroom dinner cooks up quickly on the stove and it’s super easy to clean up. We can’t ask for much more!
As flavorful as it is easy, this recipe is full of hearty chicken and mushrooms with bright peas in a gravy made with chicken broth for extra flavor. We stir in cooked instant rice at the very end (we start our rice right before cooking up the veggies to save time), but sometimes we serve the sauce over egg noodles instead. Fresh peas and snow peas taste amazing in this dish, but frozen works in a pinch if it’s what we have on hand. If you need a new easy weekday meal, try our chicken and mushroom dinner for an instant classic the whole family will love.
