Preparing the cream base for this chicken with mushrooms recipe ahead of time allows you to control the seasonings without frantically trying to throw all the ingredients into the hot skillet and trying to whisk them together as quickly as you can. Utilizing an oven-safe skillet allows you to use one skillet for the whole recipe so you don’t lose out on any of that flavor-packed fond from the chicken!

#Ingredients for Creamy Garlic Chicken with Mushrooms and Noodles
16 ounces wide egg noodles
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons whole grain mustard
Salt and pepper to taste
4 bonless skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
8 ounces mushrooms (I used baby bella and shiitake)
4 cloves garlic
1 shallot
1 cup chicken stock
¼ cup loosely packed flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons fresh chives
#Method
Cook the Noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Once boiling, add the egg noodles and cook until al dente. Drain and rinse and transfer to a bowl. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil and toss to coat.
Prepare the Cream Base: In a bowl, combine the heavy cream, sour cream, mustards, and salt and pepper and whisk to combine. Chill until ready to use.
Prepare Ingredients: Preheat oven to 400ºF. Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and pepper. Wipe the dirt from the baby bella mushrooms and slice into thick slices. Remove the stems from the shiitake mushrooms and discard. Slice the caps. Peel and roughly chop the garlic. Peel and slice the shallot into thin rounds. Mince the parsley leaves and the chives and keep together in a bowl.
Prepare the Chicken: In an oven-safe skillet, heat the 2 tablespoons vegetable oil on medium-high until very hot. Add the chicken and cook for 3-5 minutes per side until very well-browned. Transfer to the oven and bake until an instant-read thermometer reaches 165ºF, about 8-10 minutes longer. Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and transfer back to the stove. Transfer the chicken breasts to a plate.
Cook the Mushrooms: Turn the heat on the skillet back to medium-high and add the mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, for 8-10 minutes until well browned. Add the shallot and garlic and cook an additional 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Prepare the Sauce: Add the chicken stock to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits stuck to the bottom. Bring to a boil and cook for 5-6 minutes until reduced slightly. Add the cream base and whisk to incorporate. Add all but a pinch of the fresh herbs and stir to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken.
Finish the Dish: After the sauce has simmered, add the noodles and toss to coat and cook for 1-2 minutes more to warm the noodles back up.
To Serve: Slice the chicken breasts on an angle and divide the noodles and mushrooms between bowls. Arrange the sliced chicken on top of the noodles and serve with the reserved herbs. Enjoy!

erictheocartman_: That looks really really yummy!
odcd4: My mom just made this!!
big_sexy_in_glasses: Double the amount of garlic otherwise the mushrooms will probably overwhelm the garlic flavor.
Also cook the chicken to 150F. It will cook up a few degrees after you pull it from the oven and 165 is basically asking for dry chicken.
Otherwise looks very good.
