Steps:
- 1. Season the chicken well with salt,& pepper. Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces.
- 2. Heat 2 Tbsp olive oi lin a large skillet on medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and saute for about 3 minutes and then add the chicken pieces and cook for about 10 minutes, turning frequently to lightly brown on all sides. Remove chicken from skillet onto a plate, and cover to keep warm.
- 3. In the same skillet add 2 more Tbsp olive oil. Add the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic and saUte for about 3-5 minutes. Careful the pan doesn't dry up. If needed add i1.2 cup water.
- 4. In a bowl add 1/2 cup white wine (the same you would drink) & 3 Tbsp dijon mustard. Mix & add this mixture to the skillet with the mushrooms. Add the chicken pieces back into the skillet and cook until the chicken is heated through, about 5 minutes.
- 5. Mix 1 Tbsp corn starch with some cooled sauce from the skillet (this will thicken the sauce and give it a creamy color) add to the skillet with the chicken & mushrooms.
- 6. Just before serving sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley. Serve over noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes like I did. ENJOY!!
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken. Bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts or thighs are best for this recipe, as they will stay moist and flavorful during cooking. You can also use a whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces.
- Use a flavorful marinade. The marinade is what gives this chicken its delicious flavor, so make sure to use a flavorful combination of spices and herbs. The recipe in the article uses a simple marinade made with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, and paprika, but you can use any marinade you like.
- Cook the chicken over low heat. This will help the chicken to cook evenly and prevent it from drying out. You can cook the chicken in a skillet, in the oven, or on the grill.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides. Chicken Maria is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, beans, vegetables, or salad.
Conclusion:
Chicken Maria is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it is also a great dish to serve to guests. The chicken is flavorful and moist, and the sauce is rich and creamy. If you are looking for a new chicken recipe to try, I highly recommend Chicken Maria.
