How to Make Baked Chicken With Mushroom Gravy
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 2 (10.75 ounce) cans cream of mushroom soup, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, a pinch of cayenne pepper, 1/2 cup evaporated milk, 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Mix until well combined and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a 13x9 inch baking pan.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
- Dredge each chicken piece in the flour mixture, ensuring complete coverage.
- Arrange chicken pieces in the prepared baking pan, skin-side down.
- Bake uncovered for 20 minutes.
- Flip chicken pieces skin-side up and bake for another 20 minutes.
- While the chicken is baking, heat 2-3 tablespoons oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 cup sliced onions and 1 (4.5 ounce) can sliced mushrooms (drained). Sauté until tender.
- Stir the sautéed onions and mushrooms into the reserved cream of mushroom soup mixture.
- After the chicken has baked for 40 minutes, remove it from the oven and drain any excess grease from the pan.
- Gently warm the mushroom soup mixture in the microwave.
- Pour the warmed soup mixture over and around the chicken in the baking pan.
- Sprinkle lightly with paprika.
- Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (160°C).
- Cover the pan with foil and bake for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the gravy is bubbly.
- Serve immediately over mashed potatoes or noodles.
