We used your recipe as a base, but made a couple of modifications...<br /> - I cooked the boneless/skinless thighs in a bit of butter and pepper, without flouring. I cooled them down, removed remaing fat and gross stuff, and cut into cubes. I also saved the pan for the upcoming veggie stage. (The idea here is to getthe flavor from the chicken but still be able to remove visible fat and gross stuff...)<br />- added a few sliced medium sized mushrooms<br />- substituted about a third of the water with heavy cream (10%)<br />- added about a tsp of corn starch (blended into a slurry with cold water) to help thicken the sauce (and make up for the lack of flouring above...)<br />- added about a tsp of dry mustard <br /><br />It is a great dish that leaves a lot of room for experimentation/preference tweaking!<br /><br />Thanks so much!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07774813583016342317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-41744742362036392442011-02-11T07:55:49.258+00:002011-02-11T07:55:49.258+00:00Thanks so much for your lovely comment Debra!
