This is a creamy version of a classic southern dish. You will be amazed at how tasty this Creamy bourbon chicken recipe is.
6 boneless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup all purpose flour
Add salt and pepper to taste
8 ounces sliced mushrooms
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup bourbon
1 cup cream
Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper; lightly dust with flour. Set aside.
In a large, heavy skillet over low heat, heat butter and olive oil. Add the chicken pieces and chopped scallions and sauté, turning pieces frequently, until chicken is golden and tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.
While the chicken cooks, baste with a few spoonfuls of the bourbon every few minutes, adding in very small amounts so liquid cooks off while the chicken cooks and does not accumulate in pan.
When the chicken is cooked through and golden, transfer to a warm platter.
Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté, stirring constantly, for about 3 minutes.
Add the heavy cream to the mushrooms and scrape loose any browned bits that may be stuck to the skillet. Simmer until the mixture is hot and starting to thicken. Taste the sauce and add salt and pepper to taste, then pour the sauce over the chicken. Serves 6.
Place chicken and the marinade in an 8 x 8 inch glass baking dish and bake in a preheated 350°F. oven for 45 minutes, basting every 10 minutes with pan juices. Remove chicken. Scrape pan juices with all the brown bits into a frying pan. Heat over medium heat and add white wine. Stir and add chicken. Serve immediately with pan juices over cooked rice
