This creamy mustard chicken with colorful vegetable mushroom ragout is a comforting yet light dish featuring tangy marinated chicken paired with a velvety, plant-based vegetable mushroom ragout that’s both nourishing and flavorful.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes (including marination)
  • Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 200 g mushrooms, sliced
  • 200 g mixed vegetables (e.g., carrots, zucchini, peas, bell peppers)
  • 200 ml unsweetened plant-based milk
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Garlic powder, to taste
  • 1 chicken breast, sliced
  • 1 tsp mustard
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix sliced chicken breast with mustard, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for about 35 minutes.
  2. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and cook until their moisture evaporates and they are golden brown.
  3. Add mixed vegetables to the pan, season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add a splash of water, cover, and let simmer until vegetables are soft.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix cornstarch with plant-based milk. Pour into the pan with vegetables and mushrooms, stirring to combine.
  5. Simmer the ragout until it thickens into a creamy consistency. Adjust with more plant-based milk if it becomes too thick.
  6. In a non-stick skillet, cook the marinated chicken over medium heat until golden and cooked through.
  7. Let the chicken rest briefly, then serve alongside or over the creamy vegetable mushroom ragout.

Notes

  • Swap in seasonal vegetables for variety and freshness.
  • Use firm tofu instead of chicken for a vegetarian version.
  • Keep chicken and ragout stored separately for best reheating results.
  • Add a splash of milk when reheating to maintain creamy texture.
  • Serve with rice, pasta, couscous, or mashed potatoes for a full meal.
