Instructions
- Heat the butter in a large, lidded non-stick frying pan or shallow casserole over a medium high heat. Once it is frothy, add the sliced mushrooms and a generous amount of salt and pepper. Cook until soft and browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Toss the chicken thighs in the flour with more salt and pepper until they have alight coating. Add the oil to the pan and once it is hot, working in batches, brown the chicken on both sides. Don’t worry about making sure that it is cooked through!
- Turn the heat down to medium and add the onion to the pan along with a little more salt. There should be enough oil leftover from cooking the chicken, but if the pan seems dry add a little more. Cook until the onion just starts to soften.
- Add the sliced garlic, and cook for a few more minutes until the garlic is soft and the onion is golden.
- Stir in the low sodium chicken broth or dry white wine, and after a minute follow with the Dijon mustard, then stir in the heavy cream.
- Return the chicken to the pan along with any resting juices and the lid. Allow to simmer gently for 15 minutes.
- Stir in the cooked mushrooms and a splash more wine if the pan looks a little dry. Cover again, and cook for a further 5 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the parmesan and a little chopped parsley.Season to taste with more salt and pepper if needed, and serve with rice or mashed potatoes.
Notes
- Heavy cream substitute: Lighten up this dish a little by substituting half and half for the heavy cream.
