I'd brown the chicken and set aside. I'd then add some sliced (or chopped)
onions and let them start to brown, add the mushrooms, a little stock, some
sherry, and put the chicken back in the pan. Put the pan in a 350 or so
oven until the chicken is done.

If you want it richer, remove the chicken to a serving plate, put the pan
back on the burner and stir in sour cream. Pour over the chicken and serve.
You could probably add a little tomato or Dijon mustard, but don't overdo
it.
