We have company

So I haven't blogged much. As soon as I started this we got house guests. I loved having them, but whew am I beat. Here is a quick easy meal that I make for company or any night. It's an old standby made with many thing I usually have on hand: 2 Whole chicken breasts cut up(halved or smaller) 1 can Chicken broth 1 onion chopped 1-2 cups mushrooms (you can use canned I prefer fresh) 1/2 pint cream Salt and pepper chicken. Brown chicken in butter. When brown add onions, cook till they sweat. Add mushrooms, cook till they release their liquid also. Add chicken broth, stir, let simmer till reduced by half. Now add cream, stir in and let reduce by half again. Serve with rice. I use larger pieces of chicken when serving to guests or on special occasions . It makes a nice presentation. I cut the chicken up smaller(it cooks faster) for family nights and then spoon it directly over the rice. Hope your family likes it as much as mine. C
