Chicken Breast with Mushrooms in Creamy Sauce Recipe
Today is one of those days when I don’t know what to cook for lunch. I opened my freezer and there I saw chicken breast and frozen sweet peas so it gave me an instant idea what to cook. Fortunately, I have a can of button mushrooms but I got no all purpose cream or cream of mushroom but I know what to substitute for it.
Ingredients: The measurements are just approximates bec. most of the times I don’t really measure when cooking, ok
1 tbsp. butter

1 can of button mushrooms cut into pcs.
1 carrot – cut into strips
1 chicken breast – cut into strip
about 1/2 cup of sweet peas
salt, pepper,
about 1/2 cup of water
about 1/2 cup of evaporated milk –(you can also use all purpose cream or cream of mushroom soup) Note: if you use cream of mushroom, i think you don;t need cornstarch anymore because this is already thick)
cornstarch dissolve in water
Procedure:
1. Put cooking oil 1st so that butter will not burn, butter then saute garlic, onion.
2. Add the chicken, cook until it changed color
3. Add the veggies. Season with salt and pepper.
