Description
A comforting dish featuring tender chicken drenched in creamy gravy, perfect for family gatherings or cozy dinners.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 chicken breasts
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooked rice or mashed potatoes for serving
Instructions
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it bubbles gently. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until it turns translucent and fragrant.
- Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed onions, stirring to coat them evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the mixture turns light golden.
- Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, continuously stirring to prevent lumps. Allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes until thickened and smooth.
- Season the gravy with garlic powder, salt, and pepper to your taste.
- In another skillet, heat a splash of broth and cook the chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes on each side until they turn golden brown and are fully cooked.
- Pour the creamy gravy over the cooked chicken, allowing it to simmer together for a few minutes.
- Serve warm over a bed of cooked rice or creamy mashed potatoes.
Notes
For a richer flavor, consider using unsalted butter and adding fresh herbs for additional flavor.
