Chicken sauce

[chazza]

Can anyone suggest a nice sauce to go with chicken? Either to pour over oven cooked chicken breasts or to cook in a pan with chopped up chicken breast, to go with potatoes and vegetables?

I was going to just use a jar but now we've a visitor coming and I want to try something a bit more home made!

I know I could google for a sauce but I'd like to take a personal recommendation rather than take a chance on one that hasn't been tried and approved yet!

Thanks in advance!

Easy one to make and taste great.!!!
fry a couple of slides onions and some mushroom in a little olive oil. When they are soft and gloden add some crumbled blue cheese (stiltons good). Once cheese has melted pour over pan fryed of roasted chicken. mmmm.

Try it! It tastes good even if ur not keen on blue cheese.

I do a chicken and mushroom stroganoff, heres the recipe:
Serves 2-

2 chicken breasts diced,
1 large onion chopped,
Mushrooms chopped,
1 clove garlic crushed,
1/2 t spoon paprika,
1 chicken stock cube,
2 tablespoons brandy,
small pot creme fraiche,
dash of worcester sauce.

Method:
Brown chicken in a little oil, throw in onion, garlic and mushrooms and stir through well. Add the paprika, brandy, worcester sauce and crumble in the stock cube. Whilst thats bubbling away boil the kettle and then add some water I usually put in about 3/4 pint. Let the alcohol cook off, the stock reduce and the veggies cook and then add the creme fraiche, stir thoroughly and cook for about ten minutes until reduced down. Add some black pepper to taste.

Tarragon sauce (yummy)

Saute one tbsp of finely chopped shallot or spring onion for one minute in a knob of butter, then add one cup of chicken stock (I use cubes) and a glug of white wine. Bring to the boil and reduce by half and add half cup of double cream and half tsp of dried tarragon. Cook throught and pour over chicken breasts.

All the above sound good, but for quick and easy, a jar of Sharwoods Kung Po sauce and a few water chestnuts and roasted cashew nuts goes great with chicken.

wrap each chicken breast in a rasher of bacon, put into an oven proof dish and pour a tin of mushroom soup over the top. cover with foil and shove it in the oven. you can if you want slice almost through the chicken breast first, and slide a slice of cheese in before wrapping in bacon. very tasty.
