Chicken with mushroom gravy

I love gravy, especially roasted chicken with homemade gravy. However, roasting chicken takes you almost 1-2 hours of roasting, another 10 minutes to prepare the gravy... This is why I like using my skillet to cook chicken.




Preparation time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:
4 Chicken thighs
2 Shallots
1 Zucchini
1 cup of fresh mushrooms (any kind of your choice) or 1/2 cup of canned mushrooms
1 tbsp  Thyme (fresh or dried)
1 tbsp Butter
1 tsp Flour
Pepper and salt for seasoning
1 tbsp Paprika
1 tbsp White wine

1. Cut the chicken thighs into smaller chunks. Marinate with paprika, and generous amount of salt and pepper.

2. Slice the shallots and zucchini.

3. Preheat a skillet in medium-high heat, drizzle with a little bit of light vegetable oil. Saute the chicken for 4-5 minutes until they are thoroughly cooked through. Put them on a plate.

4. Saute the shallots until slightly golden brown and flavourful. Add zucchini and white wine. Then add mushrooms and thyme. Let it saute for 1 minute, then add butter and chicken. Let it come to a boil.

5. Spoon 1 tbsp of the sauce from the skillet to a small bowl/cup. Add in the flour and mix well. Pour the mixture back into the skillet to thicken the sauce.

6. Serve on a plate and enjoy:)
