What Is Chicken Lombardy?

It’s the perfect dish to serve with a side of mashed potatoes, roasted potatoes, or even your favorite type of pasta.

 

 

Which type of mushrooms should I use in this recipe?
Use Baby Bella mushrooms for this recipe. They offer an incredible flavor and a soft texture that pairs well with the chicken in the sauce that you’ll create using broth and other ingredients. If you don’t have Baby Bella mushrooms, it’s fine to use what you already have on hand. However, if you’re planning to shop for the ingredients to make this meal, stick with getting a package of sliced mushrooms.

 

 

Can I use chicken thighs for this recipe?

 

It’s best to use boneless, skinless chicken breast that you can flatten and cut lengthwise. However, if you only have chicken thighs, you can use them in this recipe. You’ll still need to flatten the chicken thighs as much as possible when adding them to the baking dish with the rest of the ingredients.

 

 

 

Where can I find marsala wine?
Most grocery stores sell marsala wine. However, it depends on where you live. If you can’t find it in the grocery store, check your local Wine and Spirits store. You might also want to order the wine online for use in this recipe.

 

 

 

How long does this dish need to bake?

 

 

You’ll need to leave the baking pan full of ingredients in the oven for roughly 15 to 20 minutes, depending on how hot your oven gets. Be sure to check the internal temperature of the chicken before you slice into this meal and serve it. The best way to make sure your chicken cooks through within the 15-20 minute period is to have your oven preheated to 450F before you place your baking pan inside it.

Can I add more vegetables to Chicken Lombardy?

 

If you’d like to add more than just the green onions and sliced mushrooms to your Chicken Lombardy, it’s fine to do that. You can add what you like, such as sliced baby carrots, frozen peas, or frozen corn. These are a few examples of some of the different vegetables that will taste good with the chicken and mushrooms in the flavorful sauce that you’re preparing.

What should I serve with this dish?

You can serve this dish with some of your favorite sides. It tastes great with buttered noodles, mashed potatoes, and even baked potatoes. If you like roasted vegetables, you can prepare them and serve them on the side of your Chicken Lombardy. It’s up to you to choose what you like best. You might also want to prepare some garlic bread and a fresh salad to serve alongside this meal.

How can I store the leftovers?

You can put your leftovers in a food storage container with a lid or leave them in the baking pan, covering it with plastic wrap or aluminum foil before placing it in the fridge to keep it fresh. When stored in the fridge, your Chicken Lombardy should stay fresh for up to five days. You can easily reheat the leftovers in the microwave.
