Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make creamed chicken in the oven with mushrooms? Prepare your ingredients. For cooking we will need: chicken thighs (it is better to buy without skin and bones, so as not to bother cutting meat off the bones), mushrooms (I used champignons), cream (20%), fresh thyme, garlic, vegetable oil, ground black pepper and salt.

Wash the chicken thighs and dry. Remove the skin and trim the meat from the bone.

Step 7
Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. Add the champignons and fry, stirring, for 7 minutes until golden brown. Frying the mushrooms occurs in three stages: first, they quickly absorb all the oil. Then they fry for some time in a dry frying pan. Then, on the contrary, the moisture accumulated in them gradually evaporates. As soon as the moisture has evaporated, the roasting process begins. The mushrooms begin to acquire a golden color. This may take more than 7 minutes.

Step 8
Once the mushrooms are lightly golden brown, add the cream to the pan. Stir.
