Breaded chicken in onion sauce

To prepare a delicious and comforting meal, we start by boiling the potatoes. Choose suitable potatoes and peel them well before cutting them into cubes. Add them to a pot with cold water and salt, then let them boil over medium heat. This step is essential for achieving a creamy and tasty mash.

In the meantime, we take care of the chicken. It is recommended to use boiled chicken, and a chicken broth made from a piece of meat, carrots, and celery is ideal. This broth will not only add an intense flavor but will also enrich the final dish. After the chicken is boiled, let it cool slightly and then cut it into suitable pieces.

In a large skillet, heat the oil until it starts to sizzle lightly. Take each piece of chicken and dip it in flour, then in the beaten egg, which you have seasoned with salt, pepper, and perhaps a little paprika for extra flavor. Place the chicken in the skillet and brown it well on both sides until it becomes golden and crispy. The aroma of the fried meat will fill the kitchen and make you want to taste the dish you are preparing.

Once the chicken is ready, in the same skillet, add the grated onions. Sauté them until they become translucent, and their aroma will blend perfectly with that of the chicken. Sprinkle a tablespoon of flour and mix well to avoid lumps. Now it’s time to add the milk, pouring it gradually to achieve a creamy consistency. If the sauce seems too thick, feel free to add a little water. Season with salt, pepper, vinegar, and sugar, then add the sour cream and chopped parsley for an extra touch of freshness.

While the sauce thickens, check the potatoes. When they are boiled, drain them well and start mashing them in a large bowl. Add the butter and a splash of oil to enhance the texture. Mash the potatoes well, gradually adding the milk until you achieve a fluffy, fine, and airy mash. Make sure there are no lumps of potato left, as a successful mash must be smooth.

Serve the browned chicken with the delicious sauce poured over it and alongside a creamy potato mash. This dish is perfect for a family meal, bringing warmth and comfort in every bite. Enjoy your meal!
