Pan-fried chicken in mushroom sauce image

Creamy chicken and mushroom dish - a fabulous French seasonal recipe

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course, Supper

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tbsp sunflower oil
6 large, free-range chicken legs, halved at the joint so you have 6 thighs and 6 drumsticks
700ml/1¼ pts chicken stock (or water)
50g butter
1 onion, finely diced
400g mixed wild mushrooms
300ml/½ pt dry white wine
284ml pot double cream

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Fry the thighs for 8-10 mins, skin side only, until golden brown, then transfer to a casserole dish. Fry the drumsticks for about 5 mins each side and add them to the thighs.
  • Pour the stock over the chicken legs in the casserole. There should be enough stock to just cover the chicken, if not add a little water. Bring stock to the boil and cover, leaving lid slightly ajar. Cook at just below simmering point for 30-35 mins until chicken is cooked.
  • While chicken is simmering, drain oil from the pan. Heat the butter in pan and add onion. Sweat onion for 5 mins until soft, but not coloured. Turn up the heat, add the mushrooms, then fry for 3 mins until they soften and start to smell wonderful. Pour over the white wine, raise the heat to maximum and boil rapidly for 6-8 mins until reduced by two-thirds. Turn off the heat and leave until chicken has cooked.
  • Once chicken legs are cooked, strain stock into pan with the onion, mushrooms and white wine, bring back to the boil and reduce again by two-thirds until it is thick and syrupy. Pour in double cream, bring it to the boil, season if you want, then pour it over chicken. Heat chicken through in the sauce for 2-3 mins then turn off the heat and leave for a few mins before serving. This is such an aromatic and beautiful looking dish you should serve it straight from the casserole with the lid on.

BAKED LEMON CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE



Baked Lemon Chicken with Mushroom Sauce image

A great chicken recipe that I have made for years. Serve with rice and a fresh veggie. Impressive!

Provided by Anonymous

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 lemon
¼ cup butter
3 cups fresh sliced mushrooms
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ cup chicken broth, or more as needed
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
  • Pour olive oil in an 8x8-inch glass baking dish. Place the chicken breasts in the dish, coating each side with oil. Squeeze the juice of 1/2 lemon over each chicken breast. Slice the rest of the lemon and place a lemon slice on top of each chicken piece.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; add mushrooms. Cook and stir until mushrooms are brown and liquid is evaporated, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and stir until coated. Add chicken broth, stirring to make a medium-thick sauce. Allow sauce to reduce, adjusting with a little more broth to make a creamy sauce. Add fresh parsley at the last minute. Spoon the sauce over the baked chicken breasts.

Tips:

  • To achieve a richer flavor, use a combination of fresh and dried mushrooms. Rehydrate dried mushrooms in hot water for 15 minutes before using, then strain and reserve the flavorful liquid for adding to the sauce.
  • For a creamy sauce, stir in a dollop of sour cream or crème fraîche just before serving.
  • Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper before browning. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the chicken from becoming bland.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when browning the chicken. If the pan is too crowded, the chicken will steam instead of brown.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through, but not overcooked. Overcooked chicken will be tough and dry.
  • Serve the chicken in mushroom sauce over mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice.

Conclusion:

This classic chicken in mushroom sauce recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The creamy, flavorful sauce is made with a combination of fresh and dried mushrooms, and the chicken is cooked to perfection. Serve this dish over your favorite side dish, such as mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice, and enjoy a satisfying and comforting meal.
