Brazilian Chicken Stroganoff

April 13, 2011 By Lokness 6 Comments

 

When I go to a Brazilian restaurant, my favorite things are the stroganoff and pao de queijo (cheese bread). I have tried different recipes with those two dishes, and finally, I have found the best ones. They may not taste exactly the same like the restaurants, but I am very happy with the outcome. Today, I will post the stroganoff recipe, and I will post the pao de queijo recipe later this week. For the stroganoff, the most important ingredient is the Nestle Media Crema Table Cream. It is like heavy cream that has a thick consistency. This table cream is processed which is sold in a can. You can find it in normal supermarket in the Mexican aisle. The stroganoff came out very creamy and delicious. The good thing is this recipe doesn’t take too much time and work. Give this a try.

 

Brazilian Chicken Stroganoff (Adapted from food.com)

4 – 5 servings

Ingredients:

–   2 pounds chicken thigh fillets (cut into 1-inch cubes)

–   1 onion (finely chopped)

–   ½ lb white mushroom (sliced)

–   ¾ cup Media Crema table cream

–   ½ cup dry white wine

–   2 cloves garlic (minced)

–   2 tablespoons ketchup

–   2 tablespoons tomato paste

–   1 ½ tablespoons dijon mustard

–   ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

–   ½ teaspoon dry oregano

–   2 tablespoons oil

–   salt

–   ground black pepper

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, garlic, half the onion, salt, nutmeg, oregano and white wine. Marinate for 1 hour in the fridge.
  2. In a large pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Saute the remaining onion and mushrooms for a few minutes or until softened.
  3. Stir in the chicken and the marinade to the pan and cook for a few minutes. Add the tomato paste, ketchup and Dijon mustard.
  4. When the meat is cooked, add the table cream and mix well. Reheat gently without boiling. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve immediately over steamed white rice.

Tips:

  1. If you really can’t find table cream, you can use sour cream. But the flavors will be very different.
  2. If the sauce is too thick after adding the table cream, add a little bit water. If the sauce is too thin, add a little bit more table cream.

    Another key is using chicken thighs. So tempting to use chicken breasts, but they can get dry and mealy. Resist the temptation. I use thighs for my Indian curry dishes as well (very similar).

      Yes, agree. My husband and I like chicken thighs more than chicken breasts more in general. Thighs have more flavors and do not dry out.

    […] When I first tried pao de queijo in a Brazilian restaurant, I immediately fall in love with it. The texture of pao de queijo is not really like bread. It is gooey, chewy and savory. The cheese makes the bread amazing. It is very addictive. I can eat 5 -6 of them at a time. This recipe is very good, Bryan and I ate 12 bread all at once. Bryan likes the bread at room temperature, because they were less gooey. But I like my bread warm. If you are making this little bread, make sure to make extra. To complete your Brazilian night, this dish goes perfect with Brazilian chicken stroganoff. […]

Creamy Roasted Pumpkin Soup. It may still be 80˚F Creamy Roasted Pumpkin Soup. It may still be 80˚F (29˚C), but I’m already leaning into fall vibes. This soup starts with roasted kabocha squash & thyme, blended w/ onion, garlic, & chicken broth until silky smooth. Topped w/ crispy pancetta, a drizzle of cream, & fresh thyme. It’s layered w/ sweetness, umami, & creaminess. I’ve loved every sip, and I know I’ll be making it again (and again!) once the weather finally cools down. 🎃🍂

Next-level beef bowl!🥩🍚 Red Rock is now open Next-level beef bowl!🥩🍚 Red Rock is now opened at The Shops at Santa Anita. It’s a cozy spot w/ only about 14 bar seats, but we’re thrilled they’re now on this side of town. This Japanese restaurant first opened in Torrance in 2017, & we’ve made the trek there a few times. Now? Way more convenient! 

Their claim to fame is the sliced beef don. A rice bowl piled high with tender roasted beef, drizzled w/ sweet soy sauce & creamy yogurt sauce, then crowned with a rich raw egg yolk. In my opinion, the yolk is non-negotiable. It adds extra flavors.

While you’re there, don’t skip the croquette. Perfectly crispy on the outside, with a creamy, savory mashed potato center. Absolute comfort food.

Next time, I’m determined to try their omurice or curry… if I can resist ordering that beef bowl again.😅

Cherry Granita w/ Mascarpone Cream. Refreshing Ita Cherry Granita w/ Mascarpone Cream. Refreshing Italian style shaved ice made w/ fresh cherries, & paired w/ a creamy mascarpone topping. It’s sweet, little tart, refreshing & creamy all at once! No shaved ice machine is needed. All you have to do is to scrape the fruit liquid with a fork every once a while. That’ll prevent the liquid turning into a giant black of ice. You’ll get these flavorful tiny ice flakes at the end. 🍒🧊🍧
