Equipment

  • large skillet

Ingredients
  

Chicken

  • 600 g boneless skinless chicken thighs (4 - 5 pieces)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt
  • pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Gravy

  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 300 g mushrooms sliced (not too thin)
  • 40 g butter
  • 2 tablespoon flour
  • 2 cups beef broth/stock salt reduced
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 150 g sour cream (or yogurt)

Serving

  • 250 - 300 g pasta or egg noodles (8 - 10 oz)
  • chopped parsley or chives for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Cooking Instructions

  • Sprinkle chicken with garlic powder, salt and pepper on both sides.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place chicken in skillet smooth side down.
  • Press down lightly with a spatula. Cook for 4 minutes until golden.
  • Turn and press lightly with spatula. Cook for 2 minutes.
  • Remove chicken onto a plate.
  • Turn heat up to medium high. Add butter, melt. Then add onions, cook for 1 minute, then add mushrooms.
  • Cook mushrooms until golden. Scrape bottom of fry pan to get all the golden bits off (this is flavour!).
  • Add flour, cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
  • Add half the broth while stirring. Once incorporated, add remaining broth.
  • Stir, then add sour cream and mustard. Stir until incorporated (don't worry if it looks split, sour cream will 'melt' as it heats).
  • Bring to simmer, then reduce heat to medium low. Once it thickens to the consistency of pouring cream (3 minutes), adjust salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add chicken back in (including plate juices). Simmer for 1 minute, then remove from stove.
  • Serve over pasta or egg noodles, sprinkled with parsley or chives if desired.

Notes

Use low fat sour cream and reduce butter for a healthier version. This dish is great with various sides like mashed potatoes or rice.
