Creamy Chicken and Mushrooms with just a little cream and asiago is an amazing dish you can get on the table in 30 minutes. The mushrooms, mustard and white wine, make an ordinary chicken night into a lick-your-plate night.

Taylor came home for dinner recently, so I wanted to try something new, quick and different. She loves mushrooms so I made this recipe using wine instead of chicken broth and whole grain mustard. They almost licked their plates and made me promise I would not change anything about the recipe. The sauce was just right, a little creamy, but not too rich. The wine gave it a great flavor along with the mushrooms.
I think it would have been just a little better had I not let my fresh thyme die. This late in the summer, I tend to forget to water my outdoor plants and when I went out to cut some, it was all brown. They agreed that I could make that one change next time. I think I will be getting many more requests for this simple but flavorful chicken dish.
