Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1 small yellow onion grated or finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon chopped garlic
  • 1 teaspoons dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour or 1:1 gluten-free flour, such as King Arthur brand
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 1 large yellow onion sliced
  • 2 tablespoons butter or ghee or dairy free butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour or 1:1 gluten-free flour
  • 2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

For the Steaks:

  • In a large bowl, add ground turkey, grated onion, chopped garlic, parsley, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix gently to combine.
  • Form the chicken mixture into oblong patties (about ¾ inch thick) and set aside on a plate.
  • Add the flour to a shallow bowl and season with salt & pepper, if desired.
  • Place a skillet over medium to medium-high heat on your stove and add the olive oil. 
  • Lightly coat your chicken steaks in the flour, then carefully lower them into the hot oil. 
  • Cook the chicken steaks for 4-5 minutes per side, until browned and crispy, and cooked through the middle. 
  • Remove the cooked steaks from the skillet, then place them on a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
  • In the same skillet, add the onions & mushrooms. Cook until the onions have softened and started to caramelize, and the mushrooms are softened, stirring often.
  • Remove the cooked onions & mushrooms, and spoon them over the chicken steaks.

For the gravy:

  • In the skillet where you cooked the previous ingredients, melt the butter.
  • Whisk in the flour and cook for a minute or until a paste forms and starts to bubble.
  • Stir in the chicken or veggie stock and whisk until thickened and warmed throughout.
  • Season with salt & pepper to taste.
  • Pour over the chicken steaks or into a gravy boat before serving.

Notes

  • Ground chicken dries out easily, so there’s no need to add breadcrumbs to the steak patties. 
  • If needed, cook the chicken steaks in batches. If the olive oil browns too quickly or the pan drippings start to burn, drain the skillet and add fresh oil. 
  • Chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F before serving.
