My husband said this was the best meal I've ever cooked - and I'm not exactly a slouch in the kitchen!

This is a heavy meal with a lot of calories but it was amazing if you like mushrooms!

The chicken was delicious!!! It is just me and my husband, so I used about half the chicken but still made all of the sauce. It was just about the perfect amount, although I would leave out a little of the cream cheese (and the extra salt).

Fabulous recipe! Rave reviews from guests who have tried it at our house. :-)

This recipe is amazing! The mushroom gravy was fantastic. I think I will be doubling it for next time. We thought the potatoes were a little plain and so my husband requested that I make my own mashed potato recipe next time (and I think I will but I will make it with the red potatoes).

Our only complaint was that there were no leftovers to enjoy the next day. So I think I may end up doubling the entire recipe next time.

I have also added this to my list of recipes for when we have guests for dinner.

My family loved this recipe and they aren't usually crazy about any type of gravy or sauce

Nice varriation with sauce on top as opposed to being smothered in it.

The mushroom sauce is wonderful. Our son suggested cutting up the chicken and adding it to the sauce. Then serving over noodles instead of the red potatoes. I look forward to trying his suggestion next time.
