So heat the chicken and mushroom in a pan, cover with a lid, over low heat. Stir occasionally so that the sauce does not burn to the bottom and warms evenly. If your sauce is too thick, add some water or broth.

Baking Tips

2. If you need more sauce, double the following ingredients:
butter, mushrooms, shallots, garlic, wine, broth, thyme, mustard, and heavy cream.
3. You can replace heavy cream with pasteurized milk.
Can you freeze chicken and mushrooms?
Honestly, I do not really like to freeze such dishes. Moreover, I don’t even have time to do it, how it all ended. But if you need to cook for the future, then do the following.
At the stage when the sauce is thickened, salt and pepper it, but do not lay chicken breasts there. Wait for the sauce and chicken to cool completely.
Then pour the sauce into a sealed container with a lid, and wrap the chicken with foil. Thus, store it in the freezer separately for 3-4 months. This will facilitate the storage process and subsequent heating.
Before heating, let the sauce and chicken defrost overnight in the refrigerator. Or for several hours at room temperature. When warming the dish, cut one chicken breast, and check if it is heated enough.
