another fav around here. one mom fixed a lot when i was a kid. and it is scrumdilliumcious!
these two recipes are staples in our house. enjoy!

Chicken Scallopini
4-5 chicken breasts, cubed
2 medium white onions, cut into thin wedges
2, 8oz. containers of mushrooms, washed and sliced
1/2 cup white cooking wine
butter, margarine or olive oil

Saute chicken in a large skillet with a tbsp of margarine over medium-high heat stirring occasionally. In another large skillet, saute mushrooms and onions with a tbsp of margarine over medium-high heat. Stir often. They are done when the onions are translucent and tender, but still have a slightly crunch to them. Transfer chicken to the sauted mushroom and onion skillet and add 1/2 cup of white cooking wine. Reduce heat to medium-low and allow to simmer for 5-10 minutes---or until the liquid has reduced.


and i always serve it with steamed broccoli and these biscuits......
