Heat cooking oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and season with salt and pepper. Brown the chicken on all sides, then remove from the pot and set aside.

Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and chopped carrot to the same pot. Sauté until the onions are softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
⏱️ 7 minutes - 3
Add the sliced mushrooms to the pot and cook until they release their liquid and start to brown, about 5-8 minutes.
⏱️ 8 minutes - 4
Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and mushrooms. Stir well and cook for 1 minute to cook out the raw flour taste.
⏱️ 1 minute - 5
Gradually whisk in the chicken stock, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

Return the browned chicken to the pot. Add the dried thyme. Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
⏱️ 25 minutes - 7
Stir in the cream and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
⏱️ 5 minutes💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Do not boil after adding the cream, as it may curdle. - 8

💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Garnish with fresh parsley or chives if desired.
