Creamy Mushroom Sauce With Chicken [Plus a Secret Ingredient]

Creamy Mushroom sauce with chicken is requested a lot at our house…

Actually some of our picky dinner peeps take most of the mushrooms out of their creamy mushroom sauce. But they love the sauce!

So what’s the secret? I’ll cut to the chase, the secret to our creamy mushroom sauce with chicken dinner is white wine. And balancing out the creamy sauce with spiral zucchini makes this a little more calorie friendly and as a result, lower in carbs for me. 

 

And let’s just say if you haven’t tried spiral veggies…you are missing out!  Also as a gluten-free girl, I usually would go for spaghetti squash instead of noodles but the spiral zucchini has rocked my world.  First of all, it’s incredibly easy and not complicated.  And although I love spaghetti squash, spiral zucchini has become my favorite.  Because it’s faster to cook and the spiralizer is fun to use.

Furthermore, the kids usually want to take over that part of the meal prep so I get sous chefs without having to beg.

Here is our recipe for a creamy mushroom sauce with chicken and spiralizer zucchini pasta:
