Chicken in mushroom sauce with an Asian twist, just a little different than a classic creamy mushroom sauce. A delicious weekday meal packed with flavor.
For this chicken in mushroom sauce, you can use a mix of mushrooms, like white mushrooms and chestnut mushrooms, but you can also use other types of mushrooms.
This creamy mushroom sauce is a little different because of the fresh ginger, soy sauce, and lots of garlic. If you don't have mushroom stock, you can also use chicken stock instead.

Take the chicken breasts out of the fridge. Remove any excess fat or sinew, and season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper.
Peel the onion and garlic cloves, then chop them finely. Peel the ginger and grate it.
Clean the mushrooms with a brush or a kitchen paper towel and thinly slice the mushrooms.
Heat a splash of olive oil in a large frying pan and brown the chicken breasts on both sides.
Remove the chicken from the pan and add another splash of olive oil. Cook the mushrooms in batches until they are golden brown.
Add the onion, garlic, and ginger, and cook until the onion is soft and translucent.
Add 3 tablespoons of soy sauce along with 250 ml of mushroom stock, and bring to a boil.
Stir in 4 tablespoons of crème fraîche, and season with salt and pepper.
Put the chicken breasts back in the pan and let them cook in the sauce. Check if they are completely done before serving.
