Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

- Drizzle with melted butter and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 45 minutes, or until chicken is nicely browned and cooked through (juices run clear).
- Meanwhile, place remaining soup mixture in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in cornstarch to thicken, and cook over low heat until heated through. Use this as a sauce when chicken is done.
BAKED LEMON CHICKEN THIGHS WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE
A great chicken recipe that is moist, tastes fresh, and has a fantastic mushroom sauce! The sauce uses my mother's secret to never lumpy sauce/gravy...mixing the stock with the flour before adding it to the pan. This is a fail-proof method that has served me well over the years.

Steps:
- Stir 1/4 cup lemon juice, salt, rosemary garlic seasoning, and oregano in a large bowl. Add chicken and enough water to cover; stir well. Cover and refrigerate chicken 4 hours to overnight. Drain and discard lemon juice brine.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Spread half the lemon slice in the baking dish. Arrange chicken thighs over lemon slices; top chicken thighs with remaining lemon slices.
- Bake chicken in preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Melt light butter with olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir mushrooms, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried lemon peel in hot butter-oil mixture until mushrooms are browned and soft, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine chicken stock and flour in a jar with a tight fitting lid; shake well. Pour mixture into mushrooms.
- Increase heat to medium high; simmer mushroom sauce until thickened, about 10 minutes. Serve with chicken.

Tips:
- Choose the right mushrooms. Baby bella mushrooms or cremini mushrooms work well in this recipe. If you use a different type of mushroom, make sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. When you're searing the chicken thighs, make sure to give them enough space in the pan so that they can brown evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will steam instead of sear.
- Use a good quality balsamic vinegar. The balsamic vinegar adds a lot of flavor to this dish, so make sure to use a good quality one. A good balsamic vinegar will be thick and syrupy, and it will have a complex flavor with notes of sweetness, acidity, and bitterness.
- Serve immediately. This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The chicken will be juicy and tender, and the mushrooms will be perfectly browned.
Conclusion:
Baked mushroom chicken thighs are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is juicy and tender, the mushrooms are perfectly browned, and the balsamic vinegar adds a delicious tangy flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
