Cooking method

  1. Step 1:

    Step 1

    How do you make julienne with mushrooms and chicken in pots? There's nothing complicated about this recipe. First, get the listed ingredients ready.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2

    Boil the chicken fillet in salted water until done (about 25 minutes from when it comes to a boil).

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3

    Cut the cooked fillet into strips or small pieces.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4

    Wash the champignons, pat them dry, and cut them into slices. If the mushrooms are large, it's better to halve them and slice each half. If you're using frozen mushrooms, take about one and a half times more, since they cook down to just a handful once thawed and fried.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5

    Peel the onion and cut it into small cubes.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6

    Grate the cheese on the coarse or medium side.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7

    Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet, add the onion, and sauté, stirring, until translucent. You can then take the onion out of the pan, as I do, or leave it and keep frying it together with the mushrooms.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8

    Add the mushrooms to the pan and fry, stirring, for 5 to 7 minutes, until the excess moisture cooks off. At the end, salt and pepper the mushrooms and stir.

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9

    Since I'd fried the onion separately, I put the cooked mushrooms in a bowl with the onion and stirred.

  10. Step 10:

    Step 10

    Now make the cream sauce. My cream is 20% fat, but you can use a higher fat content — though that will change the dish's calorie count. The cream should ideally be at room temperature, so take it out of the fridge ahead of time.

  11. Step 11:

    Step 11

    In a dry skillet, toast the flour over medium heat, stirring, for 1 to 2 minutes. You don't have to wait for it to turn golden — just until it gives off a strong aroma.

  12. Step 12:

    Step 12

    Add the butter and stir. You'll get a thick, bubbling mixture.

  13. Step 13:

    Step 13

    Stirring constantly, pour in the cream and reduce the sauce until it thickens, about 5 minutes. At first the sauce will be very thin, but once it boils it starts to thicken fairly quickly.

  14. Step 14:

    Step 14

    At the end, salt and pepper the sauce and stir.

  15. Step 15:

    Step 15

    Divide the chicken fillet among the pots (mine hold 500 ml / about 2 cups each). This amount of ingredients was enough for 4 pots.

  16. Step 16:

    Step 16

    Spread the fried mushrooms and onion on top. If you like, you can mix the chicken and mushrooms together.

  17. Step 17:

    Step 17

    Next, spoon the cream sauce over.

  18. Step 18:

    Step 18

    Sprinkle everything with grated cheese on top. Bake the julienne in the pots in an oven preheated to 350°F (180°C) for about 20 to 25 minutes, until a golden crust forms on the cheese. The exact baking time depends on your oven.

  19. Step 19:

    Step 19

    Serve the finished julienne in the pots, straight from the oven. Enjoy!

  • Buy fresh, medium-sized mushrooms, snow-white with no spots, damage, or smell of rot. They shouldn't feel slimy. Rinse the mushrooms thoroughly to remove any grit under a stream of warm or cold water. Cut out any bad spots if there are any. Tiny mushrooms up to 3/4 inch (2 cm) don't need to be peeled at all — just rinse them well. Larger champignons are best peeled of their skins.
  • Since everyone's sense of salty, sweet, bitter, sharp, sour, and hot is different, always add spices and seasonings to your own taste! If you're using a seasoning for the first time, keep in mind that some spices are especially important not to overdo (chili pepper, for example).
  • Keep in mind that ovens differ. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those in the recipe. To make any baked dish a success, use the helpful information on the quirks of ovens!
