Creamy Chicken and Mushroom Cheese Bake
×
Ingredients
- 2 large chicken breasts, diced
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and diced chicken to the skillet, cooking until the chicken is no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook for another 5 minutes until the mushrooms are tender.
- Sprinkle the flour over the chicken mixture and stir well to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
- Gradually add in the chicken broth, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
- Stir in the heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and thyme. Remove from heat and mix in half of the shredded cheddar cheese until melted.
- Transfer the chicken and mushroom mixture to a greased baking dish. Top with the remaining cheddar cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
