Chicken Chop with Mushroom Sauced Linguine Recipe

This is a simple combination with meat, vegetate and noodles. Perfect for a rush meal.

For the chicken chop, I used boneless chicken leg.

  1. Sprinkle salt and lack pepper over bother sides of boneless chicken leg.
  2. Heat a pan. When the pan is hot, put the chicken in with skin side down to sear the chicken. Since chicken leg contains fat, I didn’t use an extra oil. Frying needs a bit more patience. Fry both sides till golden brown. Skin will become crispy. Set fried chicken aside.

  1. Use the same pan to fry mushroom in chicken oil. Also add in a little chopped garlic and fry for 2-3 mins. Cut in 1 tablespoon butter. When butter melted, add in 1/4 cup heavy cream. Stir with low heat. Season with salt and black pepper. If you don’t have heavy cream, you can use flour. When butter melted, dissolve 1 tablespoon flour in 1/4 cup water or stock. Pour it into the pan. Also pour in 1/4 cup milk and you will also get smooth and creamy sauce in this way.
  2. Add cooked linguine into the mushroom sauce and mix well.
