French Chicken with Mushrooms and Cream
To cook chicken with cream and mushrooms according to the French recipe, you will need:
- 4 chicken breasts without skin and bones;
- ½ teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice;
- 5 tablespoons of softened butter;
- 1 tablespoon of chopped shallots;
- 100 grams of small champignons;
- ¼ cup of chicken stock;
- ¼ cup of dry white vermouth;
- 1 cup of fat cream;
- salt and freshly ground pepper;
- 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley.
Preheat the oven to 200 ° C. Fight the chicken breasts evenly, sprinkle with lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Melt the butter, melt in a pan with a heavy bottom, fry the shallots until golden brown. Wipe the champignons with a damp paper towel, cut into even slices and add to the onion. Fry lightly, then lay chicken. Fry the fillet for several minutes on both sides until it is slightly gilded. Put on a baking sheet covered with baking parchment and bake for 5-7 minutes.
To prevent meat from staining the kitchen during beating, cover it with a piece of cling film.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the sauce. Pour the broth and wine into a pan with mushrooms and onions. Cook over high heat until the liquid thickens. Reduce heat to a minimum and add fat cream. Wait until the sauce thickens again and remove from the heat. Put the prepared chicken on plates, pour sauce and garnish with parsley.
