Recipe Introduction
Smothered Chicken with Creamy Mushroom Gravy
List of Ingredients
1/3 cup unbleached flour
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
4 large skinless boneless chicken breast halves
1/4 cup butter
1 pound mushrooms -- thinly sliced
1 small onion -- chopped
1 cup whipping cream
1 cup canned low-salt chicken broth
Salt and freshly ground pepper Recipe
Blend flour, 1/2 teaspoon thyme and allspice in a small bowl. Set side 1 tablespoon of flour mixture. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper, then with enough of remaining flour mixture to coat. Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken to skillet. Saute until brown, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to plate. Add mushrooms, onion and remaining 1 teaspoon thyme to skillet. Saute until mushrooms are brown, about 5 minutes. Mix in reserved 1 tablespoon flour mixture; cook 1 minute. Add cream and broth and bring to boil, stirring occasionally. Return chicken and any collected juices to skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered until chicken is cooked through and gravy thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. May serve with rice or noodles, if desired.
Serves 4
Note: Easy and delicious! Pork chops may be substituted for chicken with equal success.
