Make Sure to Chase off any Winter Blues!

There is nothing more comforting than chicken cooked in a creamy sauce, with or without wine and usually with mushrooms. Tender chicken morsels, mushrooms and gravy all heaped over mashed potatoes and served with fresh green beans lightly blanched in a rich chicken stock.

Blanquette de Poulet aux Champignons

Chicken with Mushrooms and Gravy

Serves 4

Total time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

Chicken

8 oz of button mushrooms

12 oz of chicken breast, cut into chunks

1 clove of garlic, minced 

Sauce

2 cups of whole milk

2 tbsp of cornflour (potato starch or all purpose flour will work)

salt

pepper

Directions

Mix the cornflour with a little Milk to make a smooth paste and set to one side. Pour the remaining milk into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and whisk the cornflour and milk mixture into the hot milk. Continue to whisk over a gentle heat until the sauce has thickened. Season to taste and take the sauce off the heat and cover until needed.

Coat a frying pan with just a drizzle of extra light olive oil and on a medium heat add the minced garlic and saute till soft but not colored. Add the mushrooms and saute them gently until cooked and then put them into a bowl.

Add a little more olive oil into the saute pan, add the chicken pieces, sauteing them until they are cooked and golden brown. Add the mushrooms and the white sauce, cover the pan and simmer over a gentle heat for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce is hot but not bubbling.

Serve over mashed potatoes with green beans that have been steamed in chicken stock.  Add a pad of butter to the green beans when served.
