Tools

Steps

Creamy Chicken Bites with Mushrooms and Potatoes

First, peel the potatoes and cut them into wedges (or rough cubes)
For a perfect result, the potatoes should be blanched in salted water for about 5 minutes, just enough to slightly soften them inside.
After draining them, quickly dry the potatoes with a cloth. Moisture is the enemy of browning!
Once drained, they are well sautéed in a pan with good Extra Virgin Olive Oil and a garlic clove until creating a delicious golden crust (only after removing them, we add the mushrooms to cook them).
Brown the potatoes over high heat without overlapping them too much in the pan, if necessary, do it in two batches. This ensures an even browning.
In the same pan, to not lose even a bit of flavor, we sear the chicken bites.
“Very important, the chicken bites should be first coated in flour and then, very important, you need to carefully remove the excess.”
We deglaze them with white wine and let it evaporate, then add a little hot vegetable broth: this step is essential to create that dense and irresistible cream that gives the dish its title.

Finally, potatoes and mushrooms are reintroduced to the pan, where they absorb the last flavors of the sauce.
The dish is completed with a generous handful of freshly chopped parsley.
Serve immediately, each bite is a true delight!
Bon appétit…….

Tips

Don’t over-boil: The 5 minutes of blanching are crucial. If they cook too much in water, they won’t form a perfect crust in the pan and might fall apart.

The flour coating should be light! Removing excess flour is the secret to a smooth, lump-free sauce.

Add vegetable broth always hot. Using cold broth can “curdle” the flour or lower the temperature too much, compromising the creaminess.

If you don’t like finding garlic in your dish, use whole crushed cloves in the oil and remove them before adding the chicken. If you love a strong flavor, mince it finely and leave it.

It keeps in the fridge for 1/2 days.
