2 tbs Avocado Oil (any neutral oil will work)

Hướng dẫn

Season the chicken with the spices listed above. There are no exact measurements on this, just coat the chicken well.

Add the oil to a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. It does not need to be cooked all the way through at this step. Remove it and set it aside.

In the same pan, add the butter. Then cook the onion, pepper and garlic for about 10-15 minutes until they turn a deep brown color.

Whisk in the flour and cook it down for about 3 minutes. Slowly stir in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring constantly until the gravy starts to thicken up. Be sure to do this low and slow!

Add the chicken back in, put the lid on and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes until the gravy is nice and thick and the chicken is thoroughly cooked and tender.

Remove from the heat and salt and pepper to taste. The gravy will continue to thicken upon standing.
