Mama Mancini's Recipes

Chicken with Mushrooms and Spinach

Not only do you cook this entire recipe in one skillet you serve from it as well. I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs but you can use the chicken parts you like. I decided after traveling for 5 weeks I needs to have something on the healthier side.

A skillet filled with perfectly browned chicken thighs is glazed and mixed with fresh spinach leaves and sliced mushrooms. These ingredients are beautifully distributed in a savory sauce, making each bite a harmonious blend of flavors. _MamaMancinis

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 8 ounces baby bella mushrooms sliced thick2 cups fresh baby spinach or more
  • 1 tbs olive oi
  • 1/2 tbs of butter
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • Salt
  • Black pepper

Directions

1

Salt and pepper the chicken.

2

In a large skillet (I use a non stick) add the olive oil and once it’s hot add the chicken and allow it to cook on a high heat for 3-5 minutes. You are looking for a nice golden brown color.

3

Flip the chicken and cook the other side the same way. Remove the chicken from the skillet.

4

Add the stock and scrape everything off the bottom of the skillet then add the mushrooms. Allow this to cook for 2-3 minutes.

5

Now add the white wine, butter and then the chicken back to the skillet. Flip the chicken several times, cooking this for another 3- 5 minutes.

6

Once you have checked to be sure the chicken is done turn off the heat add the spinach fold it into the chicken and sauce, cover with a lid and allow this to sit for 2 minutes. I serve mine directly from the skillet as it makes no sense to serve it any other way, at least to me.
