Preparation

What You Need

2 lb (1 Kg) skinless chicken thighs or
drumsticks
1 tsp (5 ml) paprika
2 tsp (10 ml) vegetable oil
1 onion, thinly sliced
3 cups (750 ml) mushrooms, thickly sliced
1 tbsp (15 ml) all-purpose flour
1 cup (250 ml) Milk
Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

Sprinkle chicken evenly with paprika. In large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; cook chicken until well browned all over, about 5 min on each side. Add onion and mushrooms; cook, stirring often, for 10 min or until onions are tender and mushroom liquid has evaporated.

Whisk flour into cold milk until well mixed; pour into pan and cook, stirring, until thickened slightly. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook for 15 min longer or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced. Season with salt and pepper.


Tips

For the Adventurous: Soak 1/2 cup (125 mL) dried shiitake, porcini or other wild mushrooms in hot water for about 20 min or until softened; drain and add along with regular mushrooms.

Healthy Eating Tip: Chicken is a source of iron and potassium. It also contains lots of protein and niacin, and it is a good source of zinc. Remove the skin then cut meat from any chicken part- breasts, thighs or legs. They are all very lean once the skin is removed.
