  • 1 casserole dish (approx. 9x13 inches)
  • 1 measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • to taste salt
  • to taste pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup fresh spinach optional for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sauté for about 3 minutes until softened.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes until they are browned and have released their moisture.
  • Season the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, thyme, and oregano. Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the seasoned chicken thighs.
  • Cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the heavy cream and chicken broth and stir until well blended.
  • In your casserole dish, layer the cooked chicken and mushroom mixture evenly. Pour the cream and broth mixture over the top, then sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over everything.
  • Cover the casserole dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
  • After 25 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. If desired, garnish with fresh spinach before serving.
