Mandy’s Chicken In a Creamy Mushroom Sauce

When I asked Mandy to collaborate with me and we were trying to figure out which dish to cook from each other’s blog, i came across this beautiful one pan chicken in a mushroom and tarragon sauce. I knew immediately I had to make it because I love mushrooms. Also, because who doesn’t love chicken in a beautiful rich cream sauce with garlic and onions and since it is a one pan dish, and you can’t go wrong with that!! I love and admire Mandy’s blog and instagram feed so much because its such a well rounded feed, you can find dishes from all over the world, with spice levels that suit every tastebud and she does it beautifully by incorporating her personal touches. Please don’t forget to checkout her feed and her blog for more beautiful dishes and follow her to see what more amazing dishes she has to offer. 

I have made a few changes to her recipe to suit my family’s palate, and replaced tarragon with thyme due to unavailability. If you have tarragon by all means please use that! 

Serve it with a salad and bread and you have yourself a hearty meal!! Please don’t forget to subscribe to my blog, follow me on my instagram https://www.instagram.com/flavoredbyfatima/ and subscribe to my youtube https://www.youtube.com/user/fmaniya
