Chicken steak with mushroom sauce!

There are unforseen delays in the life of a young mother.  Young not in reference to age, for I feel I have aged, but in reference to the time which has spanned since I was bestowed with this blessing.  The point of the story being that I'm sorry for a delay since my last post.

Below is the recipe of my fave steaks of all times.  The idea was copied from a steak at my favourite resturant in Islamabad.

Ingredients:

2 chicken boneless breast fillets
1 cup of double cream (thicker than usual cream)
1 cup roughly chopped mushrooms
1 tbsp cornflour
10ml of cold tap water
3 cups chicken stock (yakhni)
salt and pepper to taste
2 tsp aginomoto or chinese salt
3 tbsp dark soya sauce
2 tbsp vegetable oil

Method:

In a shallow frying pan heat the oil and place the fillets and fry on medium heat.  Add the soya sauce and salt and pepper to taste.  Fry for about 2 minutes and flip the steak over and fry from the opposite side for another couple of minutes.  If wanted you can skip the oil and just heat the fillets with the sauce in a non stick frying pan.  Take the pan off heat and in this pan or another place the chicken in the oven and grill for 10-15 minutes or till the steak cooks to your liking.

For the sauce heat the chicken broth till it comes to boil.  Add the mushrooms and cream while cooking on medium heat.  Add aginomoto, salt and pepper to taste and keep cooking till the sauce thickens.  If the sauce is not thickening add the corn flour mixed in water till it thickens and then take if off heat.

Pour the sauce over the fillets and serve with either baked or mashed potatoes and veges as sides.
