Ingredients for Making Chicken Cream with Cornstarch:

 4 cooked and shredded chicken breasts

 3 chopped tomatoes

 1 chopped onion

 1 can of green corn

 3 tablespoons of butter or oil

 1 bottle of coconut milk (200 ml)

 1 box of sour cream

 2 cubes of chicken broth

 2 tablespoons of cornstarch (corn starch)

 1 strand of vegetable oil

 4 cups of filtered water

How to Make Chicken Cream with Cornstarch:

Place over medium-low heat a pan with vegetable oil or 1 tablespoon of margarine. Saute onion and tomatoes until tender.

Then add the chicken and mix with the onion and tomatoes. Also add the cubes of broth and 4 cups of ice water or at room temperature with cornstarch dissolved in them. Stir for 5 minutes or until this mixture boils and thickens.

Tip: if you want you can use seasoned chicken or even leftover roast chicken. Do not use hot water to prevent cornstarch from forming lumps.

Finally add the drained corn, coconut milk and cream and mix everything. Match the flavor with a little salt and pepper, stir and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is as consistent as you like.

Tip: if you prefer a smoother chicken cream, beat the corn in a blender with the coconut milk and the cream and add it to the pan, finishing cooking as indicated. Do not let it boil, so the cream does not curdle.

After the previous step your chicken cream with cornstarch is ready! Serve this Northeastern chicken cream with straw potatoes and rice, as in stroganoff, or with creamy polenta. Bon appetit and let us know in the comments what you think!
