Just made this for my grown son and me. My son freaked over it - said it was the best thing I've made in a long time. He usually eats chicken just baked - no spices or seasonings. I hardly ever cook. Will definitely make it again!!!

My daughter-in-law made this for my husband and I and we loved it. I will be making this for friends in a couple of weeks. I was going to make Chicken Marbella but this is much better!

On TV, Paula cooked the chicken in the pan with the mushrooms, shallots, and stock. She did not take out the vegetables, first. Can it be just fixed as she did it on her show? Thanks. Debbie Collinge Springfield, MO

This is a superbly elegant and easy entree. Delicious! I have made it at least 10 times- never fails me. You have done it right again Paula! I give this recipe the highest rating

I have a recipe similar to this. Paula try adding 2 TBSP of your favorite BBQ sauce to the Mushrooms before you take them out of the pan, then put the Mushrooms on the top of the chicken before adding the cheese.

Cooked this tonight at the request of my wife, as always Paula's dishes do not disappoint. It was very easy and delicious. An added bonus was only having to use (and clean) one skillet.

Last week I had a whole chicken - which I wanted to roast on the Grill....(fire on one side, place chicken on side with no coals/fire under it). I used about a cup of Stonewall Kitchens Black Cherry Cognac Preserves, 1/2 cup of Stonewall Kitchens Roasted Garlic and Onion Jam, which I pureed in food processor. Added a splash of olive oil and a splash of Olive Oil Vinaigrette and marinated the chicken in this mixture for 3-4 hours (in fridge). Roasted the chicken (in a roasting pan) on the grill, using remaining marinade to baste chicken several times during cooking...the resulting juices in the roasting pan made WONDERFUL gravy! - be sure to scrape up all the tasty brown bits! My man is still raving about the wonderful flavor! Use a meat thermometer and monitor - remove from grill shortly before it reaches your target temp (165 degrees) - it will continue to cook for a few minutes! - you don't want to cook out all the savory juices!

I love this recipe! I use more mushrooms than the recipe calls for because they are so good!

This is the best chicken I have ever made my kids love it and ask for it all the time

This recipe is awesome. Sometimes I like to add a can of cream of mushroom soup while the chicken is cooking...it gives it a wonderful extra mushroom flavor!

Thanks for pointing out that the recipe was a bit unclear at the end. We have made a change to the last sentence of the recipe to make it more clear. Once the cooked chicken has been topped with the mushroom mixture and grated cheese, it just stands long enough for the cheese to melt! Won't take long. This is a great, simple and flavorful main dish. Happy Cooking! Libbie Summers, Paula Deen Food Editor
