How to make a bug with mushrooms and chicken in pots? There's nothing complicated about this recipe. First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list.
Boil the chicken fillet in salted water until tender (about 25 minutes from the moment of boiling).
Cut the finished fillet into straws or small pieces.
Wash the champignons, dry and cut into plates. If the mushrooms are large, it is better to cut them in half and cut each half with plates. If you use frozen mushrooms, then take them with a margin of one and a half times more, because when thawing and roasting they will literally remain a handful.
Peel the onion from the husks and cut into small cubes.
Grate the cheese on a coarse or medium grater.
In a frying pan, heat the vegetable oil, place the onions and fry, stirring, until transparent. Next, you can remove the onions from the pan, like me, or leave them and fry further along with the mushrooms.
Put the mushrooms in the pan and fry, stirring, 5-7 minutes until the excess moisture evaporates. At the end, salt the mushrooms, pepper and mix.
Since I had previously fried the onions separately, I put the ready-made mushrooms in a bowl to the onions and mixed them.
Now do the cooking of the creamy sauce. I have cream with a fat content of 20%, but you can also use more fat content. True, then the calorie content of the entire dish will change. The cream should preferably be at room temperature, so take them out of the refrigerator in advance.
In a dry frying pan, stir-fry the flour over a medium heat for 1-2 minutes. It is not necessary to wait for it to acquire a golden color. It is enough to wait for the bright aroma from the flour.
Add the butter and mix. You get a viscous boiling mixture.
With constant stirring, pour in the cream and boil the sauce until thickened for about 5 minutes. At first, the sauce will be very liquid, but after boiling it will begin to thicken quickly enough.
At the end, salt the sauce, pepper and mix.
In pots (I have a volume of 500 ml each), arrange the chicken fillet. I had a given amount of ingredients for 4 pots.
Spread the fried mushrooms with onions on top. If desired, you can mix the chicken with mushrooms.
Next, distribute the creamy sauce.
Top with grated cheese. Bake the roast in pots in an oven preheated to 180 ° C for about 20-25 minutes until a blush crust appears on the cheese surface. The exact timing of the roasting depends on the specifics of your oven.
Serve the finished julien in pots directly from the oven. Enjoy your meal!
