Chicken, Rosemary and Mushroom Gravy image

I made this with some left overs and found it to be a lovely, light accompaniment to a traditional English chicken roast dinner.

Time 20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups water
1 chicken skin, roasted
2 large mushrooms, very thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tablespoon rosemary
2 tablespoons white wine
1/4 cup double cream

Steps:

  • Once you have roasted (and served if you wish) your chicken and it has cooled, carefully peel the skin off and put to one side.
  • Boil four cups worth of water and place in a small pan on a high heat. Boil the chicken in this water for about 10 minutes.
  • After ten minutes add wine, rosemary and crushed garlic.
  • Leave to boil for another 5 minutes.
  • Once you can smell the flavours really starting to come together, transfer into a skillet on a medium heat on a larger ring (the ring that you cook on should always correspond to the size of the pan you're using). Add the mushrooms.
  • Let the mix really boil down and reduce.
  • When reduced to your liking, sieve out the solids, putting the liquid back into the original pan.
  • Over a heat, add the double cream to the mixture and whisk with a sauce whisk. It should start to thicken.
  • If you've had problems getting it to thicken, feel free to "cheat" with a little cornflour.
