Steps:
- Heat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Generously salt and pepper both sides of the chicken breasts. Once the butter has melted, add the chicken to the skillet. Then add 1/4 cup of sherry. Cook the chicken for 3 minutes per side, until browned. Then remove the chicken from the skillet and place it on a plate while you work on the sauce.
- Melt another tablespoon of butter in the same skillet you just used to cook the chicken. Add the garlic and stir, scraping up any brown bits. After a minute add the mushrooms. Generously salt and pepper and toss until the mushrooms are evenly coated with butter. Cook for 2 minutes. Then add the remaining sherry. Let the mushrooms simmer for another 4 minutes.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350F. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat
- 2. Add chicken breasts and brown on both sides. Remove to a shallow baking dish and arrange in a single layer. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and basil..
- 3. In a small bowl, combine sour cream, cream of mushroom, and sherry. Pour over chicken and bake uncovered for 45*60 minutes.
- 4. Remove from oven and sprinkle with paprika and parsley. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Use a variety of apples. Different apples will give your sauce different flavors and textures. For a tart sauce, use Granny Smith apples. For a sweeter sauce, use Honeycrisp or Fuji apples.
- Don't peel the apples. The skins of apples add flavor and texture to the sauce. Just be sure to wash the apples well before using them.
- Use a good quality sherry. The sherry you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the sauce. Choose a dry sherry that is not too sweet.
- Don't overcook the sauce. The sauce should be simmered until it has thickened, but it should not be boiled. Overcooking will make the sauce too thick and syrupy.
- Serve the sauce immediately. The sauce is best when it is served hot. You can also make it ahead of time and reheat it before serving.
Conclusion:
Baked chicken with apple sherry sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is moist and flavorful, and the sauce is sweet and tangy. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
