Ingredients
- 4 skinless chicken thighs
- flour (for dusting)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 ⁄4 lb mushrooms, sliced
- 3 spring onions, sliced
- 1 ⁄2 cup cream
- 1 tablespoon brandy
- 3 ⁄4 cup grated gruyere cheese
- salt
- fresh ground black pepper
Preparation
Step 1
Flatten chicken breasts until 1/2 inch thick (I use the heel of my hand).
Dust the breasts with the flour, shaking off any excess.
Heat the oil in a frying pan, add the chicken and cook for 5 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Transfer to a lined baking tray and cover with foil.
Add the mushrooms and spring onions to the frying pan and cook for 2 minutes or until the spring onion is soft.
Add the cream and brandy and bring to the boil.
Reduce the heat and simmer for 1 minute or until the sauce reduces slightly, season with salt and the freshly ground black pepper.
Spoon the sauce over the chicken and top with the cheese.
Place under a hot grill until cheese melts and begins to brown.
(My thighs were large so I finished them in 350 oven covered in sauce and cheese)
