CREAMED CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOMS, PEARL ONIONS & SHERRY

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large saucepan, add pearl onions and swirl them around for a few minutes to season the butter. Remove the onions from the butter and set aside.
• Blend in the flour. Cook for 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste, whisking continually, careful not to overly brown the roux.
• Add the chicken broth and cream and stir until thickened and smooth.
• Add the chicken and mushrooms and pearl onions and cook for 1 minute, or until mixture begins to bubble.
• Season to taste and then stir in the sherry.
• Simmer on lowest heat setting for 15 -20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Careful not to burn.
• Serve over toast points, puff pastry patty shells or rice.
• NOTE: Now you can get fancier than this but because this sauce is plenty rich, I used plain toast to make toast points. Toast several slices of a hearty white bread. Remove the crusts, and slice on a diagonal getting 2-4 triangles per slice.
• Serve with a side of peas.
