Description
A comforting and flavorful dish of bone-in chicken simmered with earthy mushrooms, fresh herbs, and a rich sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 russet potatoes (optional, for mashed potatoes)
- 4 tablespoons butter, divided
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 pounds bone-in chicken pieces
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pound cremini mushrooms, sliced
- ¼ cup shallots, diced
- 1½ tablespoons garlic, minced
- ½ cup chicken stock
- 3 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 Roma tomatoes, diced
- 1½ cups chicken stock
- ½ cup beef stock
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons fresh tarragon, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Season the chicken generously with kosher salt and black pepper.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken pieces until golden brown, about 8 minutes per side. Remove the chicken and cover to keep warm.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sauté the mushrooms for about 3 minutes, then add shallots and garlic, cooking for an additional minute.
- Deglaze the pan with ½ cup of chicken stock, scraping up any bits stuck to the bottom.
- Stir in the tomato paste, diced tomatoes, 1½ cups of chicken stock, and ½ cup of beef stock. Bring to a simmer.
- Lower the heat and stir in the sour cream for creaminess.
- Add fresh tarragon and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Return the chicken to the pan, letting it simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and serve over mashed potatoes or rice.
Notes
Look for a golden color on the chicken for maximum flavor. Serve with mashed potatoes or rice to soak up the delicious sauce.
