Instructions
- In a large, heavy-based saucepan, saute the onion and garlic over medium heat in a little butter until onion is translucent.
- Add the mushrooms and more butter or olive oil if needed and saute until they are browned.
- Add the chicken pieces and stir a few minutes just to brown the outside.
- Add the wine and let it evaporate, stirring all the while to collect all the browning on the bottom of the pan.
- Add the thyme, stock, salt and pepper and bring to a boil.
- Turn the heat to low and add the cream, worcestershire sauce and tomato ketchup. Allow to bubble on a low heat for about 15-20 minutes until sauce darkens and flavours develop.
- Add the parsley and stir through. If it is not saucy enough for you, add a little milk or stock to get the right consistency. Check too for flavour balance here.
- Serve with your favourite side with a handful of herbs and some cracked black pepper over.
