INGREDIENTS.
Chicken pieces, 2 tbs butter, 1 large onion (finely chopped), 1 roasted red and yellow pepper (chopped), 175g Cheese (grated), 200g brown mushroom(chopped), 100g Leeks (chopped), 1 cup Half and Half, 2tbs salt, 1tbs grounded black pepper, 1 tbs cracked black pepper.
HOW TO PREPARE.
– Pre-heat the stove to a medium temperature whilst seasoning the chicken pieces with 1 tbsp of salt and grounded black pepper.
– When the stove heats up, melt the butter in a frying pan and add in the chicken pieces to fry. NOTE: all pieces must brown on both sides.
– Once fried remove the chicken, and using the same oil add in onion, salt, cracked black pepper, and roasted peppers. Ensure that the onion is cooked before adding in the peppers. Onion should not brown.
– Whilst the onion and peppers are cooking add in the mushroom and the leeks. The mushroom should be slightly cooked before adding in the leeks. Leave the ingredients to cook and the flavours to blend before going to the next step!
– This is my favourite step because its what brings out the creamy chicken! After you’ve allowed the ingredients to cook, add in the half and half. Mix it up whilst adding in the grated cheese. Allow it to cook for at least 2-3 minutes before you add in the chicken pieces.
– once the fried chicken pieces are added in allow to cook with the mixed ingredients, whilst continuing to stir. It does not take long before the dish is ready. Give it about 5 minutes to fully cook then VWALA! BON APETITE! . NOTE: covering the pot allows the food to fully cook.
This recipe is best with fried rice and mashed potatoes. So let me know in the comment section how this went for you!
