About this recipe
Chicken with Creamy Vegetable Sauce Thermomix TM7 is the kind of creamy chicken recipe that turns a plain weeknight dinner into something special without extra effort. In this all-in-one kitchen machine, chicken breast fillets are cooked gently while carrots and celeriac are transformed into a smooth, flavourful base that blends seamlessly with cream and a touch of Worcestershire sauce. The celery leaves add a fresh, aromatic finish that lifts the whole sauce above ordinary comfort food. What makes this dish work so well in the Thermomix TM7 is the combination of precise heating, which keeps the cream sauce stable and prevents splitting, and the powerful blending action that creates a silky consistency you would normally only get with constant manual stirring and straining. If you are searching for recipes for a quick family main course, this one delivers bistro-quality results with minimal supervision and only one bowl to wash afterwards.
Preparation tips
- Cut the chicken breast fillets into similar-sized pieces so they cook evenly and stay juicy while the vegetable sauce builds its flavour around them in the mixing bowl.
- Reserve a few celery leaves and a spoonful of cream to swirl over the finished sauce just before serving; the fresh green note contrasts beautifully with the rich celeriac base.
- For a milder family version, leave out the Worcestershire sauce and let the chicken stock cube carry the savoury depth — children usually prefer this gentler taste.
Recipe variations
- Lactose-free variation: replace the cream with oat-based cooking cream or coconut cream; the sauce still turns silky thanks to the TM7 blending power and pairs just as well with the celeriac.
- Festive winter variation: add a handful of peeled chestnuts and a pinch of thyme to the carrots and celeriac, then serve the creamy chicken with crusty bread for a warming seasonal dinner.
