This recipe was originally lightened up from my friend Julia’s recipe back in 2011. She has twice as many family members in her household so I halved her recipe and cut back on the butter and olive oil. I then substituted half of the wine for fat free chicken broth and the results were fantastic.

What to serve with chicken tenderloins and mushrooms

We like it served with brown rice, pasta, quinoa or farro on the side, along with a big salad.
