Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 7 -8 chicken thighs, boneless
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp oil, for frying
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 5 garlic cloves, minced
- 250 g mushrooms, sliced (cremini or button)
- *1/4 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup parmesan, grated
- 1 tsp parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tsp rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 tsp thyme, finely chopped
- 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Parsley, finely chopped
- Lemon juice
Instructions
- 1
In a small container or bowl, combine together the cornstarch, salt, and pepper. Mix well until combined.
- 2
Pat your chicken dry. Lightly coat the chicken in the seasoned cornstarch mixture, and dust off any excess.
- 3
Heat the oil in your pan over medium heat. Fry the chicken for 5-7 mins on both sides (may be longer if using bone-in thighs or breasts) until golden crispy and cooked all the way through. Remove the chicken and set aside.

In the same pan, melt the butter. Add in the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5-7 mins until they've browned and released some of their moisture. Add in the garlic and sauté for an additional 2-3 mins until fragrant.
- 5
Pour in the white wine to deglaze the pan, carefully scraping the bottom of the pan to remove any fond. Let the wine reduce until most of the liquid has evaporated.

Pour in the chicken stock and heavy cream. Add in the shredded parmesan, parsley, rosemary, thyme, and soy sauce. Mix well and let simmer to thicken, about 3-5 mins. Taste the sauce, and adjust with more salt and pepper, if desired.

Once thickened, add back in the cooked chicken. Spoon the sauce over the chicken to coat. Top with parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice, to taste. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
