From the ever-popular "Chicken Never Disappoints" series, here's a creamy, cheesy chicken breast stew that you can easily make with your pantry staples. It turns out surprisingly tender with a deep, rich flavor. Be careful to prevent separation, and enjoy this moist and juicy dish!

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Chicken breast 1 pc
  • 1/4 Onion, finely chopped
  • 3-4 slices Melting cheese slices
  • 1/2 cup Milk
  • 1 tbsp All-purpose flour

Seasonings

  • Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 3 tbsp
  • Coarsely ground black pepper, a pinch
  • Olive oil 2 tbsp
  • Salt, to taste

Steps

  1. Check the grain of the chicken breast. Key Tip: Chicken breast is divided into three sections with different grain directions. Cutting against the grain will make it tender.
  2. Separate the chicken breast into three parts along the grain and slice thinly against the grain. Key Tip: Overcooking will make it tough, so slice thinly for quick cooking.
  3. Rub salt, to taste into the sliced chicken breast.
  4. Evenly coat the chicken breast with 1 tbsp all-purpose flour and mix lightly. Key Tip: Coating with flour protects the surface of the meat and keeps it moist.
  5. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a frying pan and sauté 1/4 onion, finely chopped until fragrant.
  6. Lower the heat and add the chicken breast coated with flour, stir-frying to combine with the onion. Key Tip: Don't overcook the chicken breast, as it will become tough. Sauté only until the surface changes color.
  7. Increase the heat, add 3 tbsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine), and once it boils, cover immediately and steam-fry. Key Tip: Steaming with sake will make the chicken breast moist and juicy.
  8. Remove the lid and add 1/2 cup milk, pre-warmed. Key Tip: Milk can separate if overheated, so just warm it through.
  9. Once the milk is warm, turn off the heat and add 3-4 slices of melting cheese slices, torn into pieces.
  10. Cover the frying pan and let the residual heat melt the cheese. Key Tip: Do not overheat to prevent the milk from separating. Melt slowly with residual heat.
  11. Once the cheese has melted and the sauce has thickened, season with a pinch of coarsely ground black pepper. Key Tip: If it's not salty enough, taste and add salt as needed. The salt from the cheese is often sufficient.
