Chicken cooked with mushrooms and cream is a kitchen classic, presented here in a lighter version. Serve with boiled potatoes or egg noodles.

Ingredients

  • 3 lb chicken pieces, skinned
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup minced shallots or onions
  • 4 cups cremini mushrooms or button mushrooms
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 2 tbsp tarragon vinegar or white vinegar, (add 2 tsp/10 mL dried tarragon to white vinegar)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 cup light sour cream
  • 1/4 cup chopped  fresh parsley

Preparation

In plastic bag, toss chicken with flour to coat. Reserve any remaining flour.

In large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; brown chicken, about 10 minutes. Transfer to plate; pour off fat in pan.

Add butter to pan; reduce heat to medium. Add shallots; cook for 1 minute. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Stir in reserved flour; cook, stirring, for 1 minute.

Add stock, vinegar, salt and pepper; bring to boil. Return chicken to pan; reduce heat, cover and simmer, occasionally spooning sauce over chicken, until juices run clear when chicken is pierced, 20 to 25 minutes.

Increase heat to medium. Stir in sour cream; heat through. Sprinkle with parsley.
