Method

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter; sauté the chicken breast pieces until browned on all sides, then transfer to a plate.

  2. In the same skillet add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter, then add the mini dumplings and fry, turning occasionally, until they are golden and crisp on all sides.

  3. Add the sliced onion and sliced champignons to the pan; sauté until the onions are translucent and the mushrooms are nicely browned.

  4. Pour in the cooking wine and stir, allowing it to evaporate for about 30 seconds.

  5. Stir in the heavy cream and dark soy sauce; continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and coats the vegetables and dumplings.

  6. Return the browned chicken pieces to the skillet, mix everything together, and heat through for 2–3 minutes.

  7. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper as needed, then serve immediately.
