Chicken Cheese Recipe | Turkish-Style Cheese Chicken | Chicken with White Sauce

In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with salt, paprika, red chili powder, cumin seeds, black pepper, garlic paste, tomato paste, and vinegar.

Mix well to coat the chicken evenly with the spices. Cover and let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).

Cook the Chicken:

Heat a large pan or skillet over medium-high heat and add a little oil. Once hot, add the marinated chicken pieces.

Cook the chicken for 7-10 minutes, turning occasionally until it is browned on the outside and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.

Prepare the White Sauce:

In the same pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk continuously for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.

Slowly add the milk and heavy cream, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens.

Stir in the shredded cheese and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Continue to cook, stirring, until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.

Combine and Serve:

Add the cooked chicken back into the pan with the white sauce. Stir well to coat the chicken in the creamy sauce.

Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

Serve:

Serve this cheesy chicken with your favorite side, such as rice, potatoes, or a simple green salad.
