Creamy Lemon Pepper Chicken
Ingredients:
-
1 to 1.5 Lbs. boneless skinless chicken, cut into cubes
-
2 Tablespoons Oil of choice – we recommend Chosen Foods Avocado Oil
-
1 Onion, large, diced
-
4 Tablespoons (1/2 stick) Butter
-
1.5 cups Chicken Broth
-
½ cup Heavy Cream
-
4 Tablespoons Flour (we recommend Jovial Foods Einkorn Flour)
-
Juice of 1 large lemon
-
Luscious Lemon Pepper seasoning
Instructions:
​
-
Dice onions and place into large wide skillet of choice and sauté on medium heat in 1 tablespoon of avocado oil.
-
Dice chicken into desired cube size and add to skillet once onions are half cooked. Approx 3-5 minutes. Add additional oil as needed to keep the chicken from sticking. Stir occasionally.
-
Once chicken is halfway cooked, approx. 5-7 minutes, sprinkle a generous amount of Luscious Lemon Pepper over chicken and stir to coat all surfaces of the chicken.
-
Continue cooking chicken and onion mixture until done throughout.
-
Remove chicken and onions from the pan and set aside.
-
Place same skillet back onto stove and place 4 tablespoons of butter into skillet and allow to melt slowly on medium low heat.
-
Once butter is completely melted, add 4 tablespoons of Einkorn flour and turn heat to medium while constantly stirring with a whisk. YOU CAN’T STOP STIRRING or the flour will burn. Once the flour is thoroughly mixed in with the butter, continue stirring with a whisk and allow the flour butter mixture to cook for 2-3 minutes.
-
Combine heavy cream and chicken broth in a measuring cup and pour mixture into flour butter mixture and continue to whisk to combine.
-
Flour/butter/broth/cream mixture will begin to thicken as it bubbles and simmers.
-
Once you have reached the desired thickness, add in chicken & onion mixture and the juice of one lemon and any additional Luscious Lemon Pepper to get the flavor you are going for.
