Creamy Chicken with Mushrooms and Sherry

Description

This creamy chicken dish is a family favorite, especially during the cooler months. The combination of tender chicken, earthy mushrooms, and a hint of sherry creates a rich and comforting flavor that's hard to resist. I've been making this recipe for years, and it's always a hit! It's perfect served over rice or pasta for a satisfying meal. The fresh thyme and parsley add a bright, herbaceous note that balances the richness of the cream. This dish is also great for using up leftover roasted chicken.
