Hey there foodies!
I just wanted to share with you my latest culinary triumph – Creamy Mushroom Chicken! It’s a recipe that I stumbled upon in an old cookbook and decided to give it a try. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint!
First things first, let me give you the ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 pound mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Now, onto the cooking!
I started by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, and then browning them in a pan with some olive oil. Once they were cooked through, I set them aside to rest.
Next, I added some butter to the same pan and sautéed some diced onions and minced garlic until they were fragrant. Then, I added the sliced mushrooms and cooked them until they were tender.
Once the mushrooms were done, I added a cup of chicken broth and let it simmer for a few minutes. Then, I added a cup of heavy cream and let that simmer as well.
To thicken up the sauce a bit, I mixed a tablespoon of cornstarch with some cold water and added it to the pan. I stirred it in and let it cook for a few more minutes until the sauce had thickened up to my liking.
Finally, I added the chicken breasts back to the pan and let them warm up in the sauce for a few minutes.
And voila! Creamy Mushroom Chicken was born.
I served it over some rice and it was absolutely delicious. The creamy sauce was the perfect complement to the tender chicken and earthy mushrooms. It was a hit with my family and I’m sure it will be with yours too!
So, if you’re looking for a new chicken recipe to try out, give Creamy Mushroom Chicken a shot. You won’t regret it!
