Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400F.Dry the chicken by patting with paper towels and if you haven't Pre-seasoned, sprinkle both sides liberally with salt and pepper.
- Place the flour in a shallow bowl and dredge the chicken in the flour to coat.
- In a large, ovenproof pan (12-inches will do), heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the floured chicken in three batches (don't overcrowd the pan) and brown lightly for 3 to 5 minutes on each side.
- Remove the browned thighs, set aside and continue with the rest until all the chicken is browned and set aside.
- Drain any excess fat from the pan and add the chopped pancetta and cook until crispy.
- If necessary, remove from the pan, set aside and drain the excess fat (without wiping the pan). Reduce heat to medium-high. Add the bacon back to the pan along with chopped onion and cook until soft, but not brown.
- Add the garlic and cook another minute.
- Add the mushrooms and saute until soft.
- Add the sherry. Raise the heat to high, bring to boil, scraping the bottom of the skillet to mix the brown bits into the liquid. Cook another 2 minutes to cook down the alcohol.
- Add chicken stock and parsley. Return chicken to the skillet, skin side up. Bake for 35 minutes (or until an instant-read thermometer is about 165 degrees), the chicken should be very tender.
- Remove the chicken and set aside. With a fork, mash together the butter and 3 tablespoons of flour and add it to the sauce.
- Return to the stove, stirring constantly, over medium-high heat until the sauce is thickened slightly.
- Taste for seasoning and season to taste, put the chicken back in the sauce, and serve hot.

Steps:
- Heat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Generously salt and pepper both sides of the chicken breasts. Once the butter has melted, add the chicken to the skillet. Then add 1/4 cup of sherry. Cook the chicken for 3 minutes per side, until browned. Then remove the chicken from the skillet and place it on a plate while you work on the sauce.
- Melt another tablespoon of butter in the same skillet you just used to cook the chicken. Add the garlic and stir, scraping up any brown bits. After a minute add the mushrooms. Generously salt and pepper and toss until the mushrooms are evenly coated with butter. Cook for 2 minutes. Then add the remaining sherry. Let the mushrooms simmer for another 4 minutes. Then stir in the cream and thyme. Let the sauce reduce for 5 minutes then add the chicken back to the skillet. Place the skillet in the oven for 30 minutes so that the chicken can finish cooking. (Make sure you are using an oven-safe skillet!)
- After 30 minutes in the oven the chicken should be done - serve it with pasta or rice pilaf. Spoon the sauce over the top.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH SHERRY, CREAM AND MUSHROOM SAUCE
This recipe originally came from a book called Enjoying American Wines issued by the California Culinary Academy in the mid-1980's. My favorite story about it was when making it on a camping trip to Key West. A man walked by our camp site as I was finishing the sauce and said "Something tells me that is not Cream of Mushroom soup!". Boy, was he right. This is a delicious dish that you can serve to anyone with pride. I've doubled the sauce ingredients from the original recipe because we usually serve it with rice (usually jasmine or basmati) and we like to have extra sauce on the rice. I've made this recipe more often than any other single recipe in my repertoire and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees F. Trim all bits of fat and membrane from the chicken breasts. In a shallow bowl combine flour, salt and pepper. Dredge breasts in the seasoned flour and shake off the excess. Have a warm, ovenproof plate ready.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the butter and oil. Add chicken breasts and cook just until the thickest part springs back when pressed, 3-5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken to the warm plate and keep warm in the oven while you prepare the sauce. The recipe may be prepared to this point up to 15 minutes ahead of serving time.
- If the butter has browned too much, pour it out and add another 2 tablespoons of butter to the pan. Add mushrooms, garlic and green onion, turn the heat to high and saute until the mushrooms just begin to soften. Add sherry, bring to a boil and reduce by half. Add cream, bring to a boil and reduce to a thick sauce. Taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary.
- Return chicken breasts to pan and turn to coat with sauce. Serve topped with mushrooms and sauce (and rice on the side, if desired).
