Ingredients

  • 3 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into chunks
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 pound fresh mushrooms, coarsely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onion
  • 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups cola-flavored carbonated beverage
  • 3/4 cup chicken broth
  • 4 sprigs fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary

Directions

  1. Season chicken with salt and pepper to taste. Heat oil and butter in a very large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken and saute until golden on one side, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn and repeat on other side. Repeat in batches until all chicken is browned; place on plate or platter and set aside.

  3. Return chicken to skillet, bring to a boil, cover and simmer gently for 25 to 30 minutes or until tender and cooked through (no longer pink inside).
