Preparation

Step 1: Cook onions
In the saucepan or pan, heat butter over very medium heat.
Add the onions and cook covered until they turn translucent (about 5 minutes); occasionally stir to cook evenly.
Step 2: Simmer

Top tips
- For a non-alcoholic version, you can use chicken broth instead of white wine.
- For a gluten-free version, dissolve a teaspoon of cornstarch in some broth or the wine and use it instead of flour to thicken.
Serving suggestions
This mushroom gravy for chicken cordon bleu goes perfectly with any chicken dish but is particularly good with my easy chicken cordon bleu recipe.
This sauce also goes great with your choice of meats, steak, turkey chops, or pork chops; it's one of my favorite sauce recipes.
I love serving French blue ribbon chicken with creamy mashed potatoes and sauteed carrots. Another quick side dish is steamed broccoli or cauliflower drizzled with some butter and sprinkled with garlic salt and grated parmesan.
