This creamy mushroom chicken goes wonderfully with herb rice. And that I came to know when I first time prepared this recipe and served with my favourite herbed rice. Finally, when both were served together at our dinner table, we simply overwhelmed with its taste and since then, it has never been served without each other in my home. This chicken with creamy mushroom sauce even goes awesome with garlic bread too.

In this creamy garlic mushroom chicken, I don’t use butter, rather use olive oil and first sauté the chicken breast pieces in it, then sautéed thinly sliced mushroom and later added chopped garlic in the pan. And to make this creamy mushroom sauce, heavy cream and chicken broth took an important part, but the touch of rosemary makes it perfect.
