Ingredients

  • 4 Chicken Breasts
  • Butter
  • 2 Cloves Garlic, chopped
  • 1/4 Cup Onion, chopped
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Cumin
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Sugar
  • 3 to 4 Tablespoons Fresh Parsley, chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons Flour
  • 1/2 to 3/4 Pounds Mushrooms, sliced
  • Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
  • 1 to 2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Sweet Paprika
  • 1/4 to 1/2 Cup Olive Oil
  • 1 Cup Chicken Broth

Instructions

You can buy the chicken either skinned and boned or use chicken with the bones and skin, depending on your taste. Cook longer if it has bones. Brown the chicken in a mixture of oil and butter until golden. Remove and set aside. Saute the mushrooms in the drippings in the pan. Be careful not to burn them or they will be bitter. Return the chicken to the pan. In a blender, combine the rest of the ingredients and puree them. Pour the sauce over the chicken and mushrooms, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. You can serve this with mashed potatoes, rice or pasta.
