Quarter the mushrooms.
Add with the peas to the chicken.
Fry the mixture.
Melt the butter in a different pan and add the flour.
Cook over a low heat.
The roux is ready when it feels a bit crumbly.
Add the stock while stirring the mixture with a whisk and bring to the boil.
Stir well until you have a thick, creamy sauce.
Add the vegetables and chicken to the sauce and season with pepper and salt.
