Chicken Fricassee
Delicious recipe that I received while taking a ProStart Class from the National Restaurant Association. Fresh herbs make such a difference in dishes, so I planted oregano, thyme, basil, parsley, and chives in my garden. What fun!
8 chicken pieces
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 tsp. thyme
2 Tbsp. butter
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1/2 cup diced celery
1/2 cup diced carrots
1/2 cup diced onion
3 Tbsp. flour
1 cup white wine (My favorite for cooking is "Broke Ass"....seriously.)
2 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup cream
1 Tbsp. fresh chives
Preheat over to 350'F.
Combine salt, pepper, and thyme. Season chicken with spice blend. In a heavy saute pan, heat butter and olive oil over a moderate flame. Saute chicken on both sides, but don't let it brown. It will take about 7 minutes per side. Transfer chicken pieces to an oven proof casserole dish.
Pour diced vegetables into saute pan and sweat for 5 minutes. While stirring frequently, sprinkle flour over the vegetables and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes. Whisk wine into the flour and vegetables. Simmer for 5 minutes. Add chicken stock and cream. Bring to a boil.
Pour sauce over the chicken and cover the casserole. Place in a 350'F oven for 40 minutes. Transfer chicken and sauce to serving platter and sprinkle with chopped chives.
