GOLDEN Chicken
Place a deep pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Chicken dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the chicken until golden and cooked through, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan, season, and set aside.
STOCK & SLURRY
In a small bowl, combine the stock mix with 10ml of cold water to form a slurry. Set aside.
SIMMERING STEW
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil or a knob of butter. When hot, fry the Carrot pieces and sliced onion until slightly softened, 6-8 minutes (shifting often). Add the wine and simmer until almost evaporated, 1-2 minutes. Add the cream and 150ml of water. Bring to a boil and stir in the stock slurry. Simmer until thickened, 3-4 minutes (stirring occasionally). In the final 1-2 minutes, add the cooked Chicken back to the sauce. Loosen with warm water if too thick. Season.
