Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 bone-in chicken thighs (about 1 1/2 lb)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 package (8 oz) fresh mushrooms, sliced (about 3 cups)
  • 1 package (.81 oz) homestyle gravy mix
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • Betty Crocker™ mashed potatoes (enough for 4 servings)
  • Water, milk, butter and salt called for on potato mix box

Steps

  • 1
    In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook about 5 minutes or until browned. Reduce heat to medium; add mushrooms. Cook 8 to 12 minutes, turning occasionally, until mushrooms are tender. Remove chicken and mushrooms from skillet; drain if necessary. Cover to keep warm.

    To same skillet, add gravy mix and 1 1/4 cups water. Heat to boiling over medium heat, stirring frequently with wire whisk. Return chicken and mushrooms to skillet. Reduce heat to low. Cover; cook 10 to 15 minutes or until sauce is thickened and juice of chicken is clear when thickest part is cut to bone (at least 165°F).

  • tip 2
    It is cheaper to buy whole mushrooms and slice them yourself than to buy already sliced mushrooms.
