I have said it before, and I will say it again, mushrooms are HANDS DOWN my favorite vegetable! Whether they are stuffed or sautéed, I could eat them every single day!

So after making my mom’s CHICKEN PAPRIKA for all of you and having it become and instant favorite with my readers, I knew a mushroom version had to be made. I seriously adore this recipe and so did my family.

The creamy mushroom sauce is packed with such a savory and unbelievable taste and compliments the chicken so perfectly. The tender mushrooms within the gravy provide an unforgettable and undeniably exquisite bite.

I love this chicken because it is battered and then pan-fried to give it such a beautiful brown and crispy outside. Then it is baked to finish off cooking the chicken.

This meal encompasses restaurant quality flavor with ease. I am sure this will quickly become a new favorite just as it has in my house :)

    This looks so yummy! I am new to enjoying mushrooms. I had a problem with their texture for so long, but they can really up the flavor of a dish!

    I really want to make this .. but just checking to make sure the gravy has 2 cups of milk plus 2.5 cups half and half...so 4.5 cups of dairy in total. It seems a lot. Is this correct?
