Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 Chicken Breasts
Salt and Pepper
2 tablespoons Butter
2 cloves of Garlic (crushed or chopped)
8 ounces Sliced Mushrooms (I like baby bella)
1 cup Dry Sherry
1/3 cup Heavy Cream
1/2 teaspoon Thyme

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. Then stir in the cream and thyme. Let the sauce reduce for 5 minutes then add the chicken back to the skillet. Place the skillet in the oven for 30 minutes so that the chicken can finish cooking. (Make sure you are using an oven-safe skillet!)
  • After 30 minutes in the oven the chicken should be done - serve it with pasta or rice pilaf. Spoon the sauce over the top.

SWISS CHICKEN



Swiss Chicken image

This is a wonderful recipe. This was given to our family years ago by a good friend through the Boy Scouts. My brother would eat it all if he was allowed to and now my children who are both little love this dish. For people on a low budget this is an easy meal to make and it is easy to reheat. My mother, who does not eat chicken, loves the topping of this dish.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, free-range chicken, a good quality Swiss cheese, and a flavorful sherry will all contribute to a delicious dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When browning the chicken, make sure to do it in batches so that the pieces don't steam and become soggy.
  • Cook the chicken thoroughly: The chicken should be cooked until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a good quality Swiss cheese: The type of Swiss cheese you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the dish. Look for a cheese that is flavorful and melts well.
  • Don't overcook the sherry: The sherry should be simmered just until it is heated through. Overcooking it will cause it to lose its flavor.
  • Serve immediately: Swiss sherry chicken is best served immediately after it is cooked. The flavors will meld together as the dish sits, but the chicken will become dry if it is reheated.

Conclusion:

Swiss sherry chicken is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of tender chicken, melted Swiss cheese, and flavorful sherry is irresistible. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as rice, pasta, or roasted vegetables.
