Directions

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic until softened and lightly golden, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- 2
Add the shredded chicken and stir well to combine, letting it warm through and absorb the aromatics.
- 3
Stir in the tomato paste, ketchup, mustard, corn, and water. Simmer over low heat for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- 4
Season with salt to taste, then remove from heat and gently fold in the heavy cream. Never boil after adding the cream.
- 5
Serve immediately over steamed white rice or egg noodles, topped with crispy potato sticks if desired.
💡 Chef's Tip
Remove the pan from heat before adding the cream to keep the sauce silky and prevent curdling. For extra depth, a pinch of paprika works beautifully in this dish.
