Directions To Make One-pan Mushroom And Spinach Chicken

Making one-pan dishes is not tough at all. One-pan mushroom and spinach chicken are no exception. We have come up with a 5 step guide so that you can learn to make this recipe in no time.

Step 1: Marinating The Chicken Breasts

Take 4 pieces of chicken breast fillets. Using a sharp knife cut 3 slits on top of each chicken. Put in ½ tsp. of salt, ¼ tsp. of black pepper, and 1 tsp. of paprika. Mix them well with your hand and keep them covered. Marinate them for at least half an hour.

Step 2: Half Cook The Chicken Breasts

Take a large deep frying pan. Fill the pan with half of the oil. Heat it at medium-high temperature. Slowly dip all 4 of the chickens into the hot oil. Cook each side of the breasts for 4 minutes. 

Once the chickens are done, transfer them to a plate. Keep them covered to avoid getting cooled down.

Step 3: Cooking The Vegetables

Take 200 g mushrooms and slice them thinly. Next, take the pale section of 1 leek. Slice the leek with a sharp knife.

Now, pour the other half of the oil into the pan. Then, put it on the stove over medium heat. 

Afterward, toss the vegetables and mushrooms in the pan. Add 1 tsp. of minced garlic and 1/2 tbsp. of salt. Stir for around 2 minutes. The leek should be soft by now. You can test this by pressing it with a spoon.

Once it becomes soft, put in 1 tbsp. of plain flour. Cook them all together for 1 to 2 minutes until the vegetables are well coated. During this process, stir them consistently.

Step 4: Combining And Cooking

Take the previously half-done chickens and put them in the pan. Mix them with the vegetables and mushrooms that are being cooked already. Throw 60 gm of spinach in the pan. Add 1 tbsp. of finely chopped chives. 

Pour 300 ml light cooking cream into the pan. Mix all the ingredients well and then, cook all the ingredients covered for 3 to 4 minutes. 

After that, pick up the lid and stir the ingredients again. Cook them uncovered for 2 more minutes. Take the pan out from the stove. You will know the chickens are done when the internal temperature of the chickens is 165° F. You can measure it with the kitchen thermometer.
