Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400F.Dry the chicken by patting with paper towels and if you haven't Pre-seasoned, sprinkle both sides liberally with salt and pepper.
- Place the flour in a shallow bowl and dredge the chicken in the flour to coat.
- In a large, ovenproof pan (12-inches will do), heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the floured chicken in three batches (don't overcrowd the pan) and brown lightly for 3 to 5 minutes on each side.
- Remove the browned thighs, set aside and continue with the rest until all the chicken is browned and set aside.
- Drain any excess fat from the pan and add the chopped pancetta and cook until crispy.
- If necessary, remove from the pan, set aside and drain the excess fat (without wiping the pan). Reduce heat to medium-high. Add the bacon back to the pan along with chopped onion and cook until soft, but not brown.
- Add the garlic and cook another minute.
- Add the mushrooms and saute until soft.
- Add the sherry. Raise the heat to high, bring to boil, scraping the bottom of the skillet to mix the brown bits into the liquid. Cook another 2 minutes to cook down the alcohol.
- Add chicken stock and parsley. Return chicken to the skillet, skin side up. Bake for 35 minutes (or until an instant-read thermometer is about 165 degrees), the chicken should be very tender.
- Remove the chicken and set aside. With a fork, mash together the butter and 3 tablespoons of flour and add it to the sauce.
- Return to the stove, stirring constantly, over medium-high heat until the sauce is thickened slightly.
- Taste for seasoning and season to taste, put the chicken back in the sauce, and serve hot.

CHICKEN IN SHERRY WINE SAUCE
Comfort food at it's best! Tender chicken you can cut with a fork, simmered in a Sherry wine sauce. This recipe came from my dear friend, Madelyn Charpentier who left us too soon. The original recipe handwritten by her will be posted. I made a couple of changes

Steps:
- 1. Saute chicken breast or tenders (I've used both) in olive oil until lightly brown on all sides. Remove chicken and saute garlic (also onion if you like), add cream of chicken soup and milk and mix well. Note: salt and pepper chicken on both sides before cooking.
- 2. Add the chicken back to the pan and spoon sauce over chicken, place sliced rings of onion over the top. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes. The sliced onion rings on top make for a nice presentation, but I like my onion cooked in the sauce.
- 3. Add 1/3 cup of Sherry and simmer 5-10 minutes more. I sometimes add a little extra Sherry and mushrooms as shown in picture.
- 4. Serve with mashed potato's (my fav.) or steams rice.

Tips:
- Use a good quality sherry. A dry or medium-dry sherry will work best in this recipe. Avoid using a sweet sherry, as it will make the sauce too sweet.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the chicken. If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will not brown properly and will release too much liquid. Cook the chicken in batches if necessary.
- Cook the chicken until it is cooked through. The chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).
- Use a variety of mushrooms. This recipe calls for a combination of cremini mushrooms and shiitake mushrooms. You can also use other types of mushrooms, such as oyster mushrooms or portobello mushrooms.
- Don't boil the sauce. Once the sauce has come to a simmer, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently for 10-15 minutes. Boiling the sauce will cause it to lose its flavor.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
Conclusion:
Chicken in Sherry Mushroom Sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is rich and creamy. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
