Ingredients
  

4 chicken legs (thigh and drumstick)

1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup

1 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced

1 cup heavy cream

1 medium onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon thyme

1 teaspoon rosemary

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken legs dry with paper towels. Season them generously with salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary.

      Sauté Vegetables: In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent (about 3-4 minutes).

        Add Mushrooms: Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they are softened and lightly browned.

          Combine Sauce Ingredients: In a bowl, mix together the cream of mushroom soup and heavy cream until smooth. Add the sautéed mixture of onions and mushrooms to the bowl and stir to combine.

            Arrange in Baking Dish: Place the seasoned chicken legs in a baking dish. Pour the creamy mushroom mixture over the chicken, ensuring that each leg is well-coated.

              Bake: Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). The sauce should be bubbling and lightly golden on top.

                Serve and Garnish: Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your creamy, savory chicken legs with rice or crusty bread!
