chicken breast

🥗Healthier: turkey breast

💰Cheaper: chicken thighs

Turkey is leaner, while thighs are often less expensive.

Cut boneless chicken thighs into strips or small pieces.

Marinate chicken with oil, salt, black pepper, and chili flakes or paprika powder, then mix well.

Heat oil in a pot and add the marinated chicken, cooking for about 10 to 12 minutes until fully cooked, spreading it out to get some char.

Once cooked, remove chicken to a plate and let it rest.

In the same pot, add chopped onion and a bit of butter, allowing it to melt and cook down the onions.

Add chopped garlic and cook for another minute or two, stirring.

Add sliced mushrooms and cook on high heat for a couple of minutes.

Add about 2 teaspoons of all-purpose flour to the mushroom mixture and stir vigorously to cook the flour without any raw bits remaining.

Gradually add about 1 to 2 cups of chicken stock or broth while stirring until the gravy thickens slightly.

Add the cooked chicken back into the pot and season with salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard, mixing well.

If the gravy is too thick, add more stock or water to achieve the desired consistency.

Grate some nutmeg into the mixture for added flavor.

Finally, add cream to the pot, mixing until the dish is thick and creamy, adjusting the consistency as needed.

Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Serve hot with rice or crusty bread.
