Chicken in Creamy Mushroom Sauce

Creamy Mushroom Sauce is very popular and I believe everyone has their own recipe. I have shared my Creamy Mushroom Sauce recipe on this website, but actually I always cook it slightly differently. Sometimes I use Sour Cream, use different Herbs, add Sake (Rice Wine) OR use Chicken Stock only, and I sometimes use Oil instead of Butter. This is how I cook it most often. You don’t need to add Flour to thicken the sauce. Today I added pan-fried Chicken that was so good with this sauce.

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Clean Mushrooms and slice thickly. Thinly slice Onion and finely chop up Garlic.

* Step 2

Prepare Chicken. If you use Breast Fillets, cut in half horizontally. Season with Salt & Pepper, sprinkle with Plain Flour, and coat each Chicken piece very well.

* Step 3

Melt Butter (OR heat Oil) in a large frying pan, non-stick preferred, over medium heat, and cook Chicken until both sides are nicely browned and just cooked through. Transfer to a plate.

* Step 4

To make Creamy Mushroom Sauce, add some extra Butter (OR Oil) to the same frying pan and cook Onion, Mushrooms and Garlic.

* Step 5

When cooked, add Sake (Rice Wine) OR White Wine, and stir for 1 minute. Then add Chicken Stock, season with Salt and Pepper, and cook for a few minutes.

* Step 6

Lower the heat, add Cream (OR Sour Cream), stir to combine, return the Chicken to the sauce, simmer for a few minutes.

* Step 7

Sprinkle with the Herb of your choice, and serve with Rice OR Mashed Potato, and steamed Veggies. *Note: I used Thyme that is my favourite for this sauce. I added some sprigs when I simmered the sauce and sprinkled with some leaves before serve.
