Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Chicken Thighs 2 pieces
  • Onion 1/2
  • Walnuts 15g
  • Mushrooms 1 pack each
  • All-purpose Flour (to taste)
  • Parsley (to taste)

Seasonings

  • [A] Salt (to taste)
  • [A] Pepper (to taste)
  • White Wine 100cc
  • Bouillon 100cc
  • Balsamic Vinegar 1 tsp
  • Whole Grain Mustard 2 tsp
  • Honey 1 tbsp
  • Olive Oil (to taste)
  • Butter (to taste)

Steps

  1. Season 2 chicken thighs with salt and black pepper on both the skin and flesh sides.
  2. Lightly dust the chicken thighs with all-purpose flour.
  3. Shake off any excess flour from the chicken thighs.
  4. Heat a frying pan and add olive oil.
  5. Once the pan is hot, place the chicken thighs skin-side down and cook over low heat until golden brown.
  6. [Key Tip!] If there is too much fat rendered from the chicken while cooking, wipe it off with a paper towel. This will prevent the dish from being too rich and ensure a delicious result.
  7. Slice 1 pack of mushrooms thickly. If using Maitake mushrooms, remove the tough stem and break into bite-sized pieces.
  8. Finely chop 1/2 onion.
  9. Roughly chop 15g of walnuts.
  10. Once the skin of the chicken thighs is golden brown, flip them and lightly cook the flesh side.
  11. Remove the lightly cooked chicken thighs from the frying pan.
  12. Wipe away the chicken fat remaining in the pan with a paper towel, then add butter.
  13. Add the mushrooms and season with a little salt, then stir-fry.
  14. Sauté the chopped onion alongside the mushrooms.
  15. [Key Tip!] Adding onions to the mushrooms will impart sweetness and add depth to the dish.
  16. Once the mushrooms and onions are cooked, return the removed chicken thighs to the pan.
  17. Increase the heat to high and add 100cc of white wine to burn off the alcohol.
  18. Once the alcohol has evaporated, add 100cc of bouillon and let it reduce. The flour coating on the chicken will help thicken the sauce.
  19. Add the chopped 15g of walnuts and continue to reduce, allowing the flavors to meld.
  20. For the finishing touch, add 1 tsp of balsamic vinegar, 2 tsp of whole grain mustard, and 1 tbsp of honey. Adjust to your preferred taste.
  21. [Key Tip!] You can customize the flavor by adjusting the amounts of the finishing ingredients (balsamic vinegar, whole grain mustard, and honey) to your liking.
  22. Stir in parsley and it's ready to serve!
