Delicious Chicken & Mushroom Hotpot Recipe for Cozy Nights

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 500 g chicken thighs (boneless, skinless)
  • 250 g mushrooms (sliced)
  • 1 large onion (diced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 3 cups chicken stock (low sodium)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon thyme (dried)
  • 1 teaspoon rosemary (dried)
  • 2 large potatoes (peeled and sliced)
  • 1 cup peas (fresh or frozen)
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Chicken

    Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chicken thighs and cook until browned on all sides.

    Ensure the chicken is cooked evenly for better flavor.
  2. Sauté Vegetables

    Add onions and garlic to the pot, sautéing until onions are translucent. Then, add mushrooms and cook until softened.

    Stir frequently to avoid burning the garlic.
  3. Add Stock and Herbs

    Pour in the chicken stock and add thyme and rosemary. Bring to a simmer.

    Using low sodium stock allows better control of saltiness.
  4. Incorporate Potatoes

    Add sliced potatoes to the pot. Cover and cook for 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender.

    Cut potatoes evenly for uniform cooking.
  5. Finish with Peas

    Stir in peas and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

    Adding peas at the end keeps their vibrant color.
