This recipe originally came from Wampler, but since I don’t think they are in business any more, I’ll post it here. I love the chicken, mushroom, Parmesan combination and when you add a lemon sauce to it, it’s even better.
I’m sorry I didn’t get a very good picture. I accidentally left it under the broiler just a little too long which didn’t make for the most attractive picture. This one is a piece that was cut in half. The appeal of this dish is more in the flavor than the looks department anyway.
Chicken & Mushrooms with Lemon Sauce
Recipe type: Main
Serves: 4 – 6
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breast halves, boneless and skinless
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- ¾ cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 Tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 cup water
- 2 Tablespoons white wine
- ½ teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon pepper
- ⅓ cup grated Parmesan
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a skillet and sauté the chicken until just fully cooked.
- Remove the chicken and add the mushrooms. Sauté until soft.
- Combine the cornstarch and water. Add it to the skillet along with the wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
- Stir and cook on high heat for 1 minute.
- Butterfly the chicken breasts (slice them horizontally, but not all the way through).

Mmm…lemon sauce sounds really good right now! My contribution is chicken fried steak and oven sweet potato fries. Much easier than it sounds…and watching Alton Brown on the Food Network convinced me that frying once in a while is OK – he did a demonstration where he used an entire bottle of oil, fried some foods, then poured the cooled oil back in the bottle – not much of it was gone! And you can reuse it.
I love naturally gluten-free recipes. I made a mushroom chicken dish last night and it was incredible.
I am sharing a delicious, simple soup that will convince you to never open a can of tomato soup again.
Thanks for hosting, Linda!!
That looks REALLY delicious!
You've included great ingredients in this dish. Yum!
I think your yummy lemon sauce would taste great over broccoli and asparagus. Thanks for the recipe Linda.
Cheers!

I've learned that in this house, a good lemon sauce will get my husband to eat just about anything, including his vegetables. This looks very yummy Linda. Thanks for sharing.
