Hunter’s Chicken with Mushrooms

Hunter’s Chicken with Mushrooms is hearty, healthy, and the easy dinner recipe you need as we head into cold weather. It has roots in both Italian and French cuisine as Pollo a la Cacciatora and Poulet au Chasseur. 

Originally made with wild game and foraged mushrooms, this weeknight version uses bone-in skinless chicken thighs. It’s lean and packed with nutrient-dense mushrooms, making it good and food for you! Hunter’s Chicken is one of my favorite fall dishes, and I know you and your family will love it, too.

Quick intro or re-intro, I’m Virginia Willis, a 58-year-old French-trained Southern chef and cookbook author. I lost 65# and it changed my entire life — or is it that I changed my life and lost 65#? It’s both! What started as weight loss became health gain – and I am here to share and inspire.
