香浓奶油鸡 One Pan Creamy Chicken

做法非常的简单。只要把鸡肉预先煎香，然后和其他材料一起焖煮，大约煮20分钟左右就能品尝一道很香浓美味的简易西餐了。

材料：

2汤匙橄榄油（我用玉米油）
500克起骨鸡腿肉（两大片）
100克洋葱，剁碎
125克培根，切小
3瓣蒜头，剁碎
300毫升动物性谈奶油
120毫升水
1茶匙鸡精 (可不放）
1/3杯巴马干酪
150克小菠菜
1茶匙柠檬皮屑
做法：

鸡腿洗净，用厨房纸吸干水分。
鸡腿反过来皮向下，用刀子在鸡肉稍微割几刀（不要切到完），这样鸡肉煎的时候比较快熟。然后将一片鸡肉切半，撒上少许盐和胡椒粉。
放入1汤匙油到热煎锅里，把鸡面（皮）向下，中大火煎至金黄色然后翻面再煎约3分钟即可盛起。
再放入1汤匙油到煎锅里，将洋葱和培根一起翻炒约5分钟至洋葱变软和培根变色，才加入蒜头碎，再搅拌约30秒即可。
把煎好的鸡肉放在洋葱上，倒入动物性淡奶油，巴马干酪和水（鸡精粉），搅匀煮滚。然后改换中火焖煮（不用加盖，期间要搅拌一下混合物）约10分钟或至鸡肉熟透和酱汁开始变浓稠便可（觉得酱汁太浓稠的话，可以再加一点水调开）。
最后放入小波菜焖煮1-2分钟至菠菜变软即可熄火，撒上柠檬皮屑，适量的盐（我没加盐）和胡椒粉即可配香烤面包享用。
