Description

"Creamy Mushroom Chicken Casserole", is comfort food at it's finest!! This recipe is found in the "Comforting Casseroles & Bakes" section of Trim Healthy Table Cookbook, page 141. This recipe is a family-serve recipe that feeds 6 to 8 people.

For the Bake
  • 2 1/2 lbs chicken tenderloins (or boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, thawed if frozen)
  • 3/4 cup TH Baking Blend
  • 1/2 tsp TH Mineral Salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 4 Tbs butter (or coconut oil)
  • 1 large onion (sliced)
  • 4 cloves fresh garlic (minced)
  • 16 oz fresh mushrooms (sliced)
    • For the Sauce
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 3/4 tsp TH Glucomannan ("gluccie")
  • 1/2 tsp TH Mineral Salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese (powder-style Parmesan cheese, from the green can)
Instructions
  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. 2
    Cut the chicken into 1-inch strips (easily done with kitchen scissors) and put in a bowl. Mix the Baking Blend with the salt, pepper, and onion powder. Pour the Baking Blend over the chicken pieces and toss to thoroughly coat.
  3. 3
    Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add all the chicken pieces and cook, turning once, for 5 to 6 minutes. It doesn’t matter if the chicken is not cooked all the way through, because you are just browning. Transfer the chicken to a 9 × 13-inch baking dish.
  4. 4
    Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter to the pan. Add the onion, garlic, and mushrooms and sauté for about 3 minutes, tossing the veggies several times. Pour the veggies over the chicken.
  5. 5
    Make the sauce. Put the broth, cream, Gluccie, salt, and pepper in a blender and blend well for 10 to 20 seconds. Pour the cream mixture over the chicken and veggies. Sprinkle the Parmesan on top and bake for 45 minutes.
