Chicken with White Wine Sauce

Enjoy a simple, elegant meal with locally grown oyster mushrooms and chicken. The Co-op carries wonderful locally grown oyster mushrooms from Mushroom World, a family owned mushroom growing business in Aumsville, OR. These mushrooms are the same fancy mushrooms that, before the pandemic, supplied many top-notch restaurants in Portland. They have a subtle, sweet flavor and do an amazing job soaking up delicious sauces like this white wine sauce. For the wine, you can really use any white cooking wine, but why not choose a light, zesty Pinot Gris from one of the Willamette Valley’s many talented winemakers. Let Donna walk you through the process of cooking this recipe in her Donna’s Kitchen video.
