Ingredients
 

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 8 chicken thighs or legs
  • 2 garlic cloves chopped
  • ¼ cup chopped onion
  • 1 pound baby bella mushrooms sliced
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt and pepper
  • Fresh parsley
  • Fresh thyme

Instructions
 

  • Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper. In a large fry pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the chicken and cook, turning once or twice, until golden brown on both sides, about 8 minutes total. Transfer the chicken to a plate.
  • Add the onions and sauté until barely softened, about 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and sauté until their juices are released, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes more. Add the chicken broth and heavy cream.
  • Return the chicken and any juices from the plate to the pan and spoon the mushrooms over the chicken. Cover, reduce the heat to medium-low and braise the chicken until opaque throughout, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir in the thyme, parsley, cumin and season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve warm over white rice.
