Cooking Recipe Chicken Etoufee
Recipe Ingredients
Directions
Pre cook the chicken breasts in micro wave for about 10 minutes on
high. Set aside to cool. When cool, pull into strips about the size
of a small finger. (You could use an equal amount of leftover roast
chicken.)
Singe the rough cut onions in cast iron skillet over medium high
heat. When lightly browned (3-5 minutes). Add the rest of the
vegetables, the garlic and the spices. Add butter and sizzle over
medium heat until the vegetables are limp, about 5 minutes. Stir in
the dry roux. Then stir in the chicken broth and simmer uncovered
over low heat for 15 min. Add the chicken and continue to simmer for
another 10-15 minutes. The sauce should be about as thick as a thin
gravy.
Serve over rice.
Makes two generous servings.
