CHEESE

[redlynxchan]

here's what miss smarty panties did with her leftover cheese... before it turns moldy




Mushroom and Chicken Soup
adapted from www.kraft.com.au

Ingredients

• salt and pepper to taste
• half an onion, washed, finely sliced
• 1 cube of chicken stock cube
• 1 tablespoon of cooking oil (I used corn oil)
• 2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
• 1 can of button mushrooms, finely sliced
• 200g of skinless chicken breast fillet, sliced
• 60g block Philadelphia Cream Cheese, softened (note, never freeze this if you wanna store it... it's texture gets grainy)

Instructions

• Boil 1 litre of water and dissolve the chicken stock cube in a pot.
• Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add onions, mushrooms and garlic. Cook for 5-6 minutes, until tender. Transfer into the pot of stock, bring it to boil, reduce heat, add chicken, and simmer for 5 minutes until chicken is cooked thorough.
• Combine the cheese with a little of the soup liquid and mix until smooth. Add to the soup with seasonings and mix through.

Mind you, 1 cube of chicken stock is quite salty... so i ended up adding some water towards the end :p
And i like some spice to my food. So i added lots of Sarawak white pepper :D
