SAFFRON CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare the saffron and make a roux. Put the warm water in a small bowl and crumble the saffron into it. Set aside to infuse. Meanwhile, melt the butter on medium heat. Add the onions and salt, and saute until translucent. Add the garlic and continue cooking until just fragrant, 20 to 30 seconds. Whisking constantly, add the flour to make a roux. Cook over medium heat until you can see the garlic bits in the roux getting toasty and the whole thing developing a golden hue, about 3 minutes.
• Finish the sauce. When your roux is lightly golden, add the milk in a thin stream, whisking constantly. Next, add the white wine and the saffron-infused water. Keep whisking; the sauce will thicken and smooth. Once it does, remove it from the heat and stir in the cream. Taste and adjust salt if necessary, and whisk in chili powder (optional). If the texture is too rich, stir in a bit more milk, a little at a time.

SAFFRON CHICKEN AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Season you sliced chicken breast strips with a light sprinkle of salt pepper and greek seasoning. Set aside.
• In a medium stew pot, heated over medium-high heat, add a couple of turns of the pan of olive oil to the bottom, about 3 times around or 2 tablespoons. Add in your quartered mushrooms and sauté until completely browned. This will look like WAY TO MANY mushrooms when you first put them in, but they will cook down and be about 1/3 of what you started with. When the mushrooms have cooked down, lightly season them with a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove them from the pan.
• Bring the pan up to temp again, and add another light drizzle of olive oil to the bottom of the pan, about 1 tablespoon. Add in the seasoned chicken breast strips and cook until browned, depending on the size of your​ pot, do this in batches. When all of your chicken has lightly browned on at least one side, add all the chicken back to the pot, along with the mushrooms, coconut milk, and chicken base.
• Season the stew with a couple of cracks of black pepper and 1 teaspoon of salt. Add in your saffron and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Allow it to simmer for about 20-30 minutes until the coconut milk has reduced and thickened.
• While your chicken is cooking, prepare the rice pilaf to package directions, I usually swap the water that it calls for with chicken stock to add more flavor!
