Chicken Skillet Supreme
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast (2-3)*
3 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons Italian dressing/marinade
1/3 cup chicken broth
8 ounces sliced fresh mushrooms
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (more/less to taste)
1/2 teaspoon paprika
2 cups half & half
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
Salt and Pepper to taste
6 cups cooked rice**
Cut chicken into bite-size cubes* and place in a plastic bag. Add flour, close bag and gently shake to coat chicken with flour.
Heat non-stick skillet over medium to medium high heat, add dressing/marinade, add chicken; stir fry until chicken is browned. Add chicken broth, sliced mushrooms, garlic powder and paprika; bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer, cover skillet tightly and simmer 10-15 minutes or until chicken and mushrooms are cooked through and tender (NOTE: if needed, add additional chicken broth or water to prevent chicken from boiling dry and burning; 1-2 tablespoons at a time).
Add approximately 1 3/4 cups half & half to chicken and mushrooms; stir cornstarch into remaining half & half and set aside. Bring chicken and half & half to a boil (don’t boil over), add cornstarch mix and half & half mixture; stirring, cook until bubbly and thickened.
Gently stir in thawed peas; salt and pepper to taste; heat through. Serve creamed chicken supreme mixture over hot cooked rice. Add a glass of milk and a colorful vegetable to make the meal complete.
This is a warm and comforting recipe for cool fall evenings. For variety, try serving it with pasta or mashed potatoes. Nutrition was calculated using long grain white rice and Kraft Tuscan Italian Dressing/Marinade. Serves 6
More or less cornstarch may be used to create desired consistency.
* To make it easier to cube chicken, place chicken in freezer approximately 1-hour before.
** For a nice flavor, cook rice according to package directions substituting chicken broth for the water. (Note – if suggestion is followed, additional chicken broth will be needed to prepare recipe. Nutrition was calculated using water).
