Step cooking

1. The upper parts of the chicken legs - thighs - are washed with running water, blotted with a paper towel, removing moisture, sent to a deep bowl. Sprinkle the hips with 2 pinches of black pepper and salt to your taste, mix thoroughly. If you wish, you can take chicken drumsticks or wings, while the essence of cooking remains the same.
   
2. We put the pan on the fire, pour the vegetable oil, spread the hips and fry on both sides until golden. In time, this is approximately 5 minutes on each side.
   
3. While the meat is fried, prepare the vegetables. We clean one medium onion or half large, rinse with running water, cut into small cubes.
   
4. We wash 150 g of champignons, cut them into half rings or small cubes, it depends on your preference. The number of vegetables can be more or less if you want to get a richer sauce, or vice versa.
   
5. We get the fried meat from the pan and pour the onion into it, without changing the vegetable oil. During frying, add one tablespoon of butter, mix well.
   
6. When the onion becomes soft, add chopped mushrooms to it, mix, add a little salt and pepper. Fry until the mushrooms let the juice and change color.
   
7. Pre-cream cheese is removed from the refrigerator to make it even softer. We send a slice of cream cheese (about 120-150 grams) to the pan to vegetables, knead it, let it melt completely. Instead of cheese, you can add the same amount of sour cream with a fat content of 20%.
   
8. When the cheese has melted, add 400-500 ml of water, mix well, so that the cheese dissolves in water, bring to a boil.
   
9. Once it boils, dip the fried chicken thighs in the sauce and cook for another 20 minutes.
   
10. After that, remove from heat, chicken with mushrooms in a creamy sauce is ready. You can serve as a fully prepared dish or to your favorite side dish. It is very tasty if mashed potatoes, rice or barley porridge serve as a side dish. You can serve meat to a salad of fresh vegetables - greens, cabbage and cucumber or tomatoes, cucumbers, greens.
