- Heat oil in a large skillet to 325u0b0. Add dredged chicken, and fry 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown, turning occasionally.
- Place onion and mushrooms over chicken; cook 5 minutes or until onion and mushrooms are tender. Dissolve bouillon cubes in boiling water; pour over chicken. Cover and simmer over low heat 3 hours or until chicken is tender. Skim off excess fat.
