About this recipe
Chicken with mushrooms and buckwheat is a satisfying meal made with chicken breast, buckwheat groats, button mushrooms, onion, and olive oil. The mushrooms give the dish a deeper, gently earthy flavor, while buckwheat pairs well with the sautéed chicken and onion. This simple combination makes a substantial dish without cream, cheese, or a heavy sauce. It works well as an everyday chicken-and-buckwheat meal, especially when you want a short ingredient list.
Ingredients
Servings: 3
300 g chicken breast
180 g button mushrooms
120 g buckwheat groats
1 onion
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Steps
Cook the buckwheat groats for 12–15 minutes, then set them aside so they are ready to serve with the chicken.
Dice the chicken and sear it in the olive oil before adding the mushrooms so the meat browns instead of steaming in the liquid released by the mushrooms.
Add the mushrooms and cook for another 5–7 minutes, until softened and any visible liquid has evaporated.
Finally, add 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, then continue cooking until the chicken is fully cooked in the center and the mushrooms are well seasoned.
Serve immediately with the buckwheat groats while the chicken is juicy and the other ingredients retain their texture.
