Skillet Rosemary Chicken

5.0(5)

Easy to make dish that is prepared in the skillet. Chicken breasts cooked with potatoes, lemons, cremini mushrooms and rosemary with a hint of heat from crushed red pepper flakes. I haven't had a chance to try this recipe yet, but it sounds to yummy too lose. I found this recipe in the May 2010 Food Network Magazine.
