Chicken and Mushrooms in Foil
Ingredients:
1/2 lb. mushrooms, chopped fine
3 green onions, chopped fine
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 tsp each dried thyme and marjoram, crumbled
3 tbs dry red wine
1/4 C low-sodium chicken broth
2 tsp lemon juice
Nonstick cooking spray
2 skinned & boned chicken breasts, halved
4 thin slices reduced sodium ham (about 1/4 lb)
Instructions:
Set a heavy nonstick 7-inch skillet over low heat about 30 seconds.
Add mushrooms, green onions, and garlic. Cover & cook for 10 minutes
or until mushrooms have release their juices. Mix in thyme and
marjoram.
Raise heat to moderate, add wind, and cook uncovered for 5 minutes.
Add chicken broth and cook 5 minutes longer or until almost all the

temperature has cooled slightly, stir in the lemon juice.
Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly coat 4 sheets of aluminum foil, each 10
inches long, with cooking spray. Lay 1 piece of the chicken on each
piece of foil, spoon on 1/4 of the mushroom mixture, and top with 1
ham slice. Fold foil over and crimp tightly to seal.
Place packets on a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, or until the
chicken is done.

This recipe sounds good - but I don’t use wine in my home. What can I use
instead of that? Any suggestions?
Thanks

There are a lot of wines with no alchohol content you
can use.

I don’t use wine either and I have used either
grape juice or seltzer water or just left it
out. But I have mixed seltzer water and grape
juice and gotten the same effect but you will
have to experiment.
