How to Make Baked Sherry Chicken

Step-by-Step

Preheat oven to 350.

In skillet, brown chicken slowly in butter on all sides. Remove from skillet and place in single layer in 11 x 7 baking dish.
Slice mushrooms, chop onions.
Add mushrooms and onions to skillet, scraping the bottom of the pan, and stir well to mix. Add a little more butter if you'd like. Bring to a nice simmer.
Let it cook a little longer, stirring often, till everything looks beautiful.
Add soup, sherry, seasonings, and lemon slices. Blend thoroughly, bring to a simmer.
Pour over chicken in baking dish.
Bake (uncovered) at 350 for about an hour, or until chicken is tender.
Remove from oven when it looks so beautiful you can't stand it.
Serve with rice and a nice green vegetable.
The sauce is lemony and delicious, and it's great spooned over the rice.
