Stewed chicken with canned champignons

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 50 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to stew chicken with canned champignons? Prepare your food. For chicken, take breast fillet, preferably chilled, not previously frozen. If the fillet is frozen, do not defrost it completely (it will be easier to cut). You can use whole or chopped mushrooms. Peel the onions and carrots and chop coarsely. My sour cream is 20% fat, but a lower percentage will do.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the chicken fillet under running cold water and dry with paper towels. Cut the chicken into small pieces. Heat the butter in a frying pan and add the chicken. Fry it over medium heat without a lid until the color changes. Don't forget to stir.

3. STEP 3

   

   In another bowl - a saucepan with a thick bottom or a saucepan with high sides - heat the vegetable oil and fry the chopped onion until transparent. Then add the canned mushrooms without liquid and heat them together for a few minutes over medium heat. It is better to first place the mushrooms in a sieve.

4. STEP 4

   

   Add chopped carrots to the chicken, add a little salt and stir. Over medium heat, covered, simmer the chicken and carrots for 10-15 minutes. If the juice from the chicken is not enough for stewing, you can add hot water (1/4 cup is enough).

5. STEP 5

   

   Add sour cream, salt, ground black pepper to taste and bay leaf to the saucepan with mushrooms. Close the saucepan with a lid and simmer the mushrooms over low heat for about 10 minutes. If the sauce is very thick, add a little liquid from the mushrooms or water.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add chicken fillet and carrots to the saucepan with mushrooms, stir. Continue to simmer everything together for another 10 minutes, covered, over low heat. Taste the dish for salt and add more salt if necessary.

7. STEP 7

   

   Serve the stewed chicken with mushrooms hot. As a side dish, you can offer boiled pasta, mashed potatoes, buckwheat, and rice. This dish is also suitable for vegetable salads. Bon appetit!
