Ingredients

Scale
  • 200 g (7 oz) Bacon lardons
  • 30 g (1 oz) Butter
  • 600 g (21 oz) Chicken thighs (skinless and boneless), Cut into 4 pieces each
  • 2 Onions, Sliced
  • 2 Garlic cloves, Peeled and crushed
  • 200 g (7 oz) Baby button mushrooms, Halved
  • 2 tbsp Tomato puree
  • 1 tbsp Plain flour
  • 1 tsp Dried thyme
  • 500 ml (2 cups) Hot chicken stock
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, Season to taste
  • 15 g (3 tbsp) Parsley, Finely chopped to garnish


Instructions

  1. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the bacon lardons for 5-10 minutes until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon, leaving the fat in the pan.
  2. Add the butter to the bacon fat and fry the chicken for 5-10 minutes, until golden on the outside.
  3. Add the sliced onions, crushed garlic, and halved mushrooms to the pan; cook for 5 minutes until the onions soften and mushrooms start to turn golden.
  4. Stir in the tomato puree, plain flour, and dried thyme, seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste.
  5. Gradually add the hot chicken stock and let the mixture simmer for 15-20 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens. Serve with mashed potatoes or crusty bread.

Notes

For added flavor, consider marinating the chicken in herbs and spices for a few hours before cooking.
This dish pairs wonderfully with a side of mashed potatoes or a fresh salad.
Feel free to substitute the mushrooms for your favorite variety to customize the taste.
