Remembered a couple of things I need for our celebration turke

Last Saturday we had the Beef Stroganoff for dinner which I posted at the beginning of October. This left me with some sour cream and some wild mushrooms. We also had extra leeks as we had bought a bunch without realising we already had some. So, I invented a recipe which turned out really well. Typically, I forgot to take a picture.
Chicken with Leeks, Mushrooms and Sour Cream
We enjoyed this very much. It was my own invention based on recipes I had been reading.
2 Tbs olive oil divided

4 oz mixed wild mushrooms
3 leeks, white and pale green part, washed thoroughly and cut into pieces
1/2 - 1 cup chicken stock
3/4 tub sour cream
4 chicken breasts
1. Heat 1 tbs olive oil in large skillet and sauté mushrooms for 3 or 4 minutes. Add leeks and stock and put a lid over the skillet to allow the vegetables to steam until the leeks are softened. Stir in the sour cream.
2. In a separate pan heat the remaining oil and brown the well seasoned chicken breasts on all sides.
3. Add the chicken breasts to the vegetable mixture and put into a 350°F oven for an hour. Part way through cooking time, check on the moisture and add a little more stock if required.
4. DON’T FORGET TO WRAP THE SKILLET HANDLE IN FOIL. It protects it in the oven.
Servings: 4
Have a great day

I don't think I've ever had bread sauce.
ReplyDeleteIt's very English Alex, and I am not sure how many English people eat it these days.
DeleteBread sauce is new to me. I didn't see the recipe in your 2008 article. Now you're going to make me look it up on line. Good job on Chicken and leeks.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had fun bowling

As I said Sia, I love it. It's olde English I think, but we always had bread sauce with turkey and I love it. The chicken and leeks was delicious.
DeleteUsually do have fun, especially if I score well.
I will have to give the bread sauce a try, I have been having Cranberry for the past few years. The Chicken and leek dish sounds very comforting. Blessings for the weekend.
ReplyDeleteIn my Saturday blog, Oct. 12, I have posted a better link to bread sauce.
ReplyDeleteThanks Amanda.
