Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound fresh chanterelle mushrooms 500 grams
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast or thighs
  • 64 oz chicken broth
  • 64 oz water
  • 2 yellow onions
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 3 carrots
  • 1 cup rice
  • ½ cup butter divided
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • Parsley sprigs for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Place broth in a large stockpot and set on low to heat up.
  • Slice your chanterelles lengthways in nice slivers. Set aside.
  • Heat half of your butter (¼ cup) in frying pan or other large pot on medium heat.
  • Dice your onions and garlic and add to heated butter. Add the salt, stirring regularly.
  • After sautéing onions for 7-10 minutes, add your mushrooms and the rest of the butter. Stir and mix in well until mushrooms and onions are melded well and slightly browned and tender.
  • Dice chicken into small pieces on a cutting board and set aside.
  • Cut and dice carrots and set aside. Mince some parsley.
  • Add the chicken to the mushroom/onion mix and stir until chicken is cooked through.
  • Add the carrots and minced parsley to the mushroom and chicken mix and stir thoroughly, cooking for another few minutes together.
  • At this point, transfer the pot of onion and chickens to the simmering broth. Carefully add the water.
  • Simmer gently for 20-30 minutes, then stir in the rice and cover. Once the rice is cooked, you're ready to eat.

Notes

  • Save more parsley for the top.
  • Feel free to use noodles instead of rice.
