Baked Lemon Chicken With Light Mushroom Sauce Recipe

Coat chicken breasts with olive oil and squeeze the juice of one lemon over them. Season with salt and pepper and place 1 to 2 slices of lemon on each breast. Bake at 350F for 30-40 minutes until juices run clear.

While chicken is baking melt the butter in a medium skillet. Add 3 cups of chopped mushrooms and one teaspoon of taragon. Lightly saute until the mushrooms are tender and golden brown in color, about 6 minutes.

Stir flour completely into the mushroom mixture. Slowly add chicken broth and continue stirring, gradually increasing heat. Gently boil until mixture reduces to form a thick, creamy sauce. Approximately 10 minutes.

Spoon sauce over chicken.
