Chicken Saute with Mentaiko Cheese Sauce
- 1 Chicken thigh
- 1 Salt and pepper
- 1 Extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 packet Mentaiko (salt-cured spicy pollack or cod roe)
- 10 tbsp Milk
- 4 slice Kraft Camembert Sliced Cheese
- Pierce the skin side of the chicken thigh with a fork several times.
- Make some shallow cuts at 1-2 cm intervals into the meat against the direction of the sinews.
- Cut away the sinews.
- Cut the meat into 6 equal pieces and lightly season with salt and pepper.
- Grease the pan with olive oil and cook both sides until browned (starting with the skin-side).
- Wipe away any excess oil that leaks out with kitchen paper.
- Remove the membrane of the mentaiko.
- Cut the cheese up so that it melts quickly.
- Making the sauce Add the milk and cheese to a small non-stick frying pan.
- Keep on a medium heat until warmed and then a low hreat.
- Melt the cheese as the mixture is warming with a wooden or silicon spatula.
- Once the cheese has completely melted, add the mentaiko and mix.
- So thick.
- Add the chicken to a plate and cover with the sauce to finish.
- Try serving with whichever vegetables you like alongside your chicken This time I sauteed some shimeji mushrooms in butter, seasoned them with salt and pepper and put them on the plate with some cherry tomatoes.
- For the sauce, you can use 6 tablespoons of milk instead for a thicker sauce.
- The only problem is that the sauce will congeal when cooled so you have to eat it while it's still hot.
- This is the cheese I used: Kraft's Camembert Sliced Cheese.
