Chicken and Mushroom Stroganoff

I was supposed to post this last week but I'm a procrastinator, so anyway, sometime last week (or was it 2 weeks ago?) the man decided he wants to cook and this is what he whipped up - chicken and mushroom stroganoff! It was really quite simple since he used the ready made cans of Heinz cream of mushroom soup.

So, ingredients the man used:

2 tbsp vegetable oil (I suppose olive oil would be fine too)
5 shallots
3 chicken thighs (about medium in size)
1 tray of small mushrooms (I think it was around 150g?)
2 cans of Heinz cream of mushroom soup
4 tbsp creme fraiche
whiskey (optional to taste; we didn't have brandy)
pepper to taste (meaning whatever amount you like)

And the recipe is at the back! Really love that they have recipes on the back of most food items now.

Of course before we start cooking, we have to prepare the ingredients.

Finely slice the shallots (or dice if you want) and also slice the mushrooms.

Then remove the bone and skin from the thighs (if you bought the ones with skin and bone on). I kept the bones to make some chicken soup and fried the skins!

After that, dice the chicken thighs.

Now we have all the ingredients ready. Heat up the olive oil in a wok or whatever big pan you have.
Add in the shallots and fry for 2 minutes, then add in the mushrooms and chicken. Brown it on high heat stirring occasionally (when we did this, the mushroom gave out a lot of juices so we had to wait awhile for the juices to evaporate and also not stir it often so that the chicken has a chance to brown). When the chicken is reasonably brown (ours wasn't really, but it doesn't really matter), lower the heat to medium and continue to cook the chicken for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid burning.

Then, add in the 2 cans of Heinz cream of mushroom soup and simmer for 5 minutes!

Add 4 tbsp of creme fraiche and some whiskey to taste and simmer for another 10 minutes.

At the end, add some pepper to taste.
Serve with steamed rice and some vege!

Enjoy!

I actually found the leftovers more yummy when I had it 2 days later!
