Ingredients

500 g Chicken Breast (about 2 medium breasts)
1 whole Onion (medium, chopped)
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Olive Oil
3 tbsp Ketchup
1 tbsp Mustard
100 g Mushrooms (Champignon) (about 1/2 cup sliced)
300 g Heavy Cream (about 1.25 cups)
1 tsp Salt
0.5 tsp Black Pepper

Instructions

1
Cut the chicken breast into uniform-sized cubes so they cook evenly.
2
Season the chicken breast cubes with salt and black pepper to taste.
3
Heat a large pan or skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
4
Add the chicken breast cubes and let them brown well on all sides without stirring too much, to avoid releasing water.
5
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent and soft.
6
Add the ketchup and mustard, mixing well to incorporate the flavors into the chicken.
7
Add the sliced mushrooms and mix.
8
Lower the heat and pour in the heavy cream. Stir gently until well heated, but without letting it boil vigorously so the sauce doesn't curdle.
9
Adjust the salt and black pepper if necessary and remove from heat.

Chef's Tips

•For an even richer sauce, you can flambé the chicken with a little brandy before adding the ketchup and mustard.
•Serve traditionally accompanied by white rice and potato sticks for a perfect contrast of textures.
•Do not let the heavy cream boil over high heat, as it can separate and lose its creamy texture.
