      \ud83e\uddd1\u200d\ud83c\udf73 Instructions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      1. Prep the Chicken<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      Season the chicken strips<\/strong> with salt<\/strong> and pepper<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      In a large skillet, heat the olive oil<\/strong> over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown<\/strong> on all sides (about 5-7 minutes). Remove and set aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      2. Cook the Aromatics<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed. Saut\u00e9 the onion<\/strong> until soft and translucent (about 3 minutes), then add the garlic<\/strong> and cook for 30 seconds<\/strong> until fragrant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      3. Make the Sauce<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      Return the chicken<\/strong> to the pan. Stir in the ketchup<\/strong>, mustard<\/strong>, and Worcestershire sauce<\/strong>. If using, add tomato paste<\/strong> for a deeper flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Add the mushrooms<\/strong> and cook for 3-5 minutes<\/strong> until tender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Lower the heat and pour in the heavy cream<\/strong>, stirring gently. Simmer for 5 minutes<\/strong> until the sauce thickens slightly. Adjust salt<\/strong> and pepper<\/strong> to taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      4. Serve & Enjoy<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      Serve hot over fluffy white rice<\/strong>, and don\u2019t forget a generous handful of batata palha<\/strong> on top for that irresistible Brazilian crunch!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
