| Creamy Chicken Angelina w/ Mushrooms, Ham & Bacon |
Ingredients
Recipe for 6 people
Chicken - Boneless Chicken Thighs 12 pieces cut in 1/2 ( approx. 2 pieces per person)
Flour mix- 2 cups flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder.
(If you want low carb - don't add flour mix to chicken)
Beef Broth- 4 cans or large container. Will use 3 cans and maybe another 1/2 can
Portabella Mushrooms - approx. 12 - 15 medium size - Sliced
Cream of mushroom soup - 4 cans
(will use 3 cans and maybe more if not thick enough)
Onion - 1 large. Sliced Thin.
Shallot - 1 small - chopped
Bacon - 6-8 Strips
Virginia Ham - cut into chucks. Deli counter ask to slice 2 piece on #9
Butter 1 - 2 sticks (cut up into 2 TBS pieces)
Marsala Wine 4 TBS for each frying pan.
Optional: Served with side Egg Noodles. Cook Noodles add beef broth, black pepper and butter.
Preparation:
1. Place 6-8 Strips of bacon in pan and cover with aluminum foil. Bake in over at 400
Once bacon is cooked take off foil and place on Broil to crisp the bacon.
Cut into chunks. (Place in bowl)
Note: I use the pan below. and I don't use any of the fat that drips off. I find that when you use the fat from the bacon you cannot taste the rest of the ingredients because the bacon over powers it with the bacon fat.
2. Boars Head -Virginia Ham Cut into chunks
At deli counter ask Clerk to slice 2 pieces of ham on #9. It will be a thick slice.
Clerk will ask many times "Are you sure" Tell him you are going to cut the ham into chunks and
Just give that "what you don't think I know what I am doing kind of look"
3. Chicken - Cut Boneless Chicken Thighs into 3" x 3" sizes. You don't want to thick
because you want the chicken to cook fast and not be raw.
4. Flour mix- Mix in large bowl approx. 2 cups of Flour,
spec of (1/4 tsp) Salt, pepper and garlic powder
Flour each piece of chicken and place flat in large pan.
(if you place on top of each other the Chicken will stick to each other)
5. In frying pan on medium high Brown each side of chicken.
You want to crisp the outside.
At this point most of Chicken can be cooked fully.
Some thicker pieces might be raw in middle.
Cook them a little bit longer on lower temperatures once outside is crisp.
Place chicken in bowl.
