Ingredients
I like using a few different varieties of mushrooms in this dish to create a bit of interest but it’s completely optional. I used chestnut/portabellini mushrooms as well as medium-sized brown mushrooms but feel free to use any variety you like or have. Chicken breasts cook much faster than thighs or drumsticks but any cut of chicken can be used instead. Fresh garlic, lemon juice, oregano and a grating of Parmesan cheese adds flavor and makes the sauce utterly delicious.

Can I make this ahead?
The chicken and sauce can be made up to a day in advance and kept in the fridge. Reheat in a pan over medium heat until hot and bubbling. Leftovers can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
