Ingredients:

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 1 medium potato, cubed

  • 1 large carrot, sliced

  • 8-10 button mushrooms, halved

  • Broccoli, cut into florets

  • Olive oil

  • 250g chicken breast, sliced

  • 2 ½ cups chicken stock

  • 2 tbsp flour

  • 4 tbsp butter

  • 1 cup water

  • 2 tbsp cream cheese

  • 1/2 cup sour cream (or half&half)

  • Salt & Pepper

Instructions:

  • Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper, then set them aside.
  • In a pot, add olive oil and sauté the onions over medium-low heat until soft.
  • Add the chicken and cook until the pinkish color has disappeared, being careful not to brown it.
  • Add the carrots and potatoes, then continue to stir-fry for 2 minutes. Remove everything from the pot and set it aside.
  • Add the butter to the pot, then once it’s melted, add the flour and cook until it forms a roux.
  • Gently add in the chicken stock while mixing.
  • Add the chicken, mushrooms, and vegetables that were set aside earlier. Simmer over low heat, mixing occasionally, until the potatoes are tender, which might take 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Add the broccoli, then pour in the water, cream and cream cheese. Continue to cook over low heat for 10 more minutes.
  • Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve hot.
  • Enjoy your creamy chicken and vegetable stew!
