This was delicious!!  Ross made fun of me and said "are you going to say it's a Sodahl fav" but yes - yes I am!!

Ingredients

·       2 tablespoons unsalted butter

·       1 tablespoon olive oil

·       2 pounds chicken breast cutlets, cut into chunks

·       1 large yellow onion, diced

·       2 garlic cloves, minced

·       16 ounces crimini mushrooms, stemmed and sliced

·       2 tablespoons flour

·       3 cups half and half or skim milk

·       1 1/2 teaspoons salt

·       1 teaspoon black pepper

·       1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

·       1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

·       fluffy white rice, for serving

Set a large skillet over high heat with the butter and oil. Once melted, add the chicken all at once. Cook until browned on all sides, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Remove chicken with a slotted spoon to a plate or platter.

Add the onions, garlic, and mushrooms and cook until caramelized and brown, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle the flour on top and stir to fully combine. Cook for about 1 minute. Reduce the heat to low, and stir in the half and half. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika and add the chicken back in. Cook for another 3 to 5 minutes. Garnish with parsley and serve on top of white fluffy rice.
