With Ryuji's ingenious techniques, anyone can successfully recreate a restaurant-quality taste without fail.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Chicken Breast 300g
  • All-purpose flour to taste
  • Butter 20g
  • Mushrooms 1 pack (130g)
  • Milk 280cc

Seasonings

  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil 1 tbsp
  • Garlic 10g
  • Chicken stock powder 2/3 tsp
  • Salt 1 pinch
  • White pepper 5 shakes

Steps

  1. Slice Mushrooms 1 pack (130g) thinly, including the stems.
  2. Slice or mince garlic 10g.
  3. Cut chicken breast 300g into bite-sized pieces, keeping the skin on and slicing diagonally.
  4. Spread out the sliced chicken breast, season thoroughly with salt and pepper to taste, then lightly dredge the entire surface with all-purpose flour to taste. 【Pro Tip!】 Dredging with flour ensures tender chicken breast and thickens the sauce.
  5. Heat olive oil 1 tbsp in a frying pan over medium heat.
  6. Arrange the flour-dredged chicken breast in the heated frying pan and cook until browned. It's okay for the inside to be medium-rare.
  7. Remove the chicken breast from the pan before it's overcooked and transfer to a plate. 【Pro Tip!】 Be careful not to overcook the chicken breast to prevent it from becoming tough.
  8. Add butter 20g to the pan from which the chicken was removed, and melt.
  9. Add the thinly sliced garlic 10g and sauté until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
  10. Add the thinly sliced mushrooms 1 pack (130g) and sauté while allowing them to absorb the butter.
  11. Add milk 280cc, chicken stock powder 2/3 tsp, salt 1 pinch, and white pepper 5 shakes to the pan with the sautéed mushrooms, and mix.
  12. Bring to a boil over high heat and reduce until the sauce is thick enough to draw a line on the bottom of the pan with a spatula. 【Pro Tip!】 To create a rich sauce using only milk without fresh cream, it is crucial to thoroughly reduce it with the butter.
  13. Once the sauce has sufficiently thickened, turn off the heat and return all of the reserved chicken breast and its juices to the pan.
  14. Toss everything well with the sauce. The flour coating on the chicken will dissolve, further thickening the sauce.
  15. Finish by sprinkling with white pepper to taste.
