Instructions
1
Start by making the sauce. Melt the butter in a saucepan over the heat. Add the water, a teaspoon lemon juice, and the cream. Season with salt and pepper and cook over medium heat until the sauce starts to thicken.
2
In the meantime, prepare the chicken. Spread the chicken breasts on a cutting board. Cut horizontally into cutlets if very thick. Season with salt and pepper. Put 2 tablespoons flour on a plate and dredge the chicken breasts, covering all sides well.
3
Heat a little olive oil in a skillet and fry the chicken breasts. Remove from the skillet and drain off any excess fat on paper towels.
4
While the chicken is frying, dice the onion and slice the mushrooms. Mince the garlic. Put a skillet on the stove with a little oil and add the onion, mushrooms, and garlic. Fry for 8–10 minutes, stirring often.
5
Then, pour the sauce into the skillet with the vegetables and let cook. The sauce will gradually thicken and part of the liquid will evaporate.
6
Finally, mix the chicken with the vegetables and the sauce and serve.
Tips & Tricks
If you have chicken broth, you can use this instead of the cup of water to make the sauce. You can grate a little fresh ginger and add in the last step. It will give the dish a very interesting flavor.
