Creamy Chicken and Mushroom Skillet

My family and I had this amazing chicken dish for dinner on Sunday.  We had these chicken thighs in a creamy and delicious mushroom sauce. The chicken pieces were browned first, cooked in a mixture of white wine, thyme, garlic and mushrooms and then finished off in a mixture of asiago cheese, cream and Dijon mustard. The combined flavors and textures were incredible. We had this satisfying dish with steamed rice but they are also good served over noodles. No matter what you served this creamy chicken and mushroom dish with, they will surely be a hit with your family or friends. Enjoy!
