Smoked Paprika on Baked Chicken With Mushrooms!

        Yay, it's Friday!!  I will admit, the end of the week doesn't have the same meaning as it did before I retired!  Fridays now for me are a day with Sawyer, and I always look forward to time with her!  Sawyer just turned two!  For my loyal friends and followers, you know this blog and Sawyer were born on the same day, and Dished With Love is dedicated to her, with much love!

        I have been busy, busy lately.  With Summer comes a lot of vacations and requests for a pet sitter, and I have a nice client list. I have a photo gallery on here of my pet "clients".  I was home this week and was able to cook a little in the kitchen and prep a few things for next week when I'll be gone again!

        I had some chicken breasts thawed out and bought some fresh mushrooms earlier in the week, so I came up with this easy and delicious recipe!  I was doing several things at one time, so I didn't even think about taking photos until the dish was already in the oven!  It is so easy, though.  

        I had two chicken breasts that I bought at Sam's.  They came in a package that had two breasts individually wrapped in four separate packs that were ready for the freezer!  Most of the time I'll save money and separate large packages and put in individual freezer bags myself, but sometimes these convenience packages are so appealing that I can't resist!  I cut the large breasts into four pieces, about four ounces each.

Ingredients:

  • 4 - 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts (4 ounces each)
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth (use red wine or sherry, if you like)
  • 1/2 medium Vidalia onion, in season right now, small diced
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Salt and pepper both sides of the chicken breasts.  Place them in a glass baking dish after spraying the dish with cooking spray (I love my Misto, I use good, light olive oil in it). Sprinkle with smoked paprika. Bake, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
  2. While the chicken is in the oven, saute the onions, garlic and mushrooms in butter for about five minutes. Add the broth or wine, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and let the liquid cook down a little. Pour over chicken.
  3. Bake 10-15 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 165°. 

          Enjoy this easy, impressive, delicious, and healthy dish!

        I have two honorable mentions this week.  Sawyer just turned two, so I must show you how beautifu she is.  From this picture you can tell she gets that from her beautiful mother, Lindsay!

        On a sadder note, my pet friend, Bo, died last week.  He was the sweetest big dog who loved to play catch with his tennis balls and cool off in the pool.  He belonged to my friends, Jeff and Carrie, and was part of Willie and the Boys.  Willie is the cat and Marley is Bo's brother.  They have all been featured in previous blogs and Willie, Bo and Marley are in the pet slideshow on the right side of this page.  He is missed.

This is one of the recipes that I have been excited about. I seriously believe that this recipe is just insanely good. I want to try and cook this for my girlfriend and I hope that she enjoys it. I am going to try my best to make her happy. I want our relationship to last as long as possible, and this is one of the ways that I see. I want to be the perfect boyfriend for her, that is for sure.
