A while back, and with a while back I mean about two months ago, my Mumsie dear and I were home alone. As she was playing working girl, I decided to suprize her with a nice comforting warm meal once she arrived back home. This Chicken dish is the a-typical dish that is served for an "Early Bird" dinner Special for the not-so-young. And although it has great potential to taste bland and boring, my jazzed up Version had my mom go for THIRDS! So what is the recipe that has a diet crazy woman disregard her daily calorie dose? You just wait and see!
You will need:
500 grams of Chicken Breast (or 1 lbd) without skin and removed from the bone.
About 200 grams of mushrooms (I prefer the brown ones, but any type will do)
100ml of heavy cream
Milk
Salt
Pepper
1 Onion finely chopped
2 Garlic cloves finely chopped
2 tblsp of Mushroom Pesto (get this at a delicatessen Store...most of them have it)
Sherry
Chili flakes
Thyme
Sage
Rosemary
Cut the chicken into thin strips and set aside. Chop the Onions, garlic. Cut the Mushrooms into fine slices and sauté in a pan with Olive oil, the onions and the garlic. Be sure not to crowd the Mushrooms, as this will hinder them to release their moisture. Now add the chicken and continue to sauté until the chicken is almost fully cooked. Add the cream to the chicken and stir. Should more liquid be needed, add milk and stir. Add the Pesto. Season with salt, pepper, thyme, sage, rosemary and chili flakes. Right before you serve, heat again and add a generous splash of cooking sherry.
Serve with Rice and Broccoli.
It'll have your granny screaming for more.
