Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
- Pour olive oil in an 8x8-inch glass baking dish. Place the chicken breasts in the dish, coating each side with oil. Squeeze the juice of 1/2 lemon over each chicken breast. Slice the rest of the lemon and place a lemon slice on top of each chicken piece.
- Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; add mushrooms. Cook and stir until mushrooms are brown and liquid is evaporated, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and stir until coated. Add chicken broth, stirring to make a medium-thick sauce. Allow sauce to reduce, adjusting with a little more broth to make a creamy sauce. Add fresh parsley at the last minute. Spoon the sauce over the baked chicken breasts.

Tips:
- Use a variety of mushrooms. This will give your dish a more complex flavor and texture.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you crowd the pan, the mushrooms will steam instead of sautéing and they will not brown properly.
- Cook the mushrooms until they are browned. This will give them a richer flavor and a more tender texture.
- Use a good quality chicken broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
- Season the dish to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
- Garnish the dish with fresh herbs. This will add a pop of color and flavor.
Conclusion:
Saucy Mushroom Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is made with a variety of mushrooms, chicken, and a creamy sauce. The dish is flavorful, satisfying, and sure to please everyone at the table.
