Preparation
- Step 1
Remove the skin and fat from the chicken thighs. Place them in a saucepan, cover with 6 cups of water and season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 45 minutes. Remove and let cool; reserve the broth.
- Step 2
Remove the meat from the bones and set aside. In a frying pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and mushrooms and saute for 5 minutes or until the mushrooms are cooked and the onion wilted. Set aside.
- Step 3
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the flour and stir well. Slowly whisk in 2 to 3 cups of the reserved broth to make a thin roux. Season with the thyme, lime juice, salt and pepper.
- Step 4
Add the chicken, onion and mushrooms to the sauce and reheat slowly. Adjust the seasonings and serve.
