Chicken Fricassee



Fricassee = Meat stewed in wine and cream. From there, it's up to you.



Two chicken breasts, boned...



And cut in half and seasoned...



And browned in nothing but a lot of butter.



Chicken out, garlic, raw mushrooms, a cup of white wine and a cup of stock in...



Then a cup of cream and some tarragon.




Chicken back in pan...



Covered and simmered for 40 minutes or so.



And after simmering away...



Chicken out to cool a bit...



Sauce strained...



And then thickened.



More mushrooms sauteed and then chopped....



Along with frozen peas, and blanched pearl onions and carrots...



Into sauce.



Chicken cut up into large pieces....



And returned to sauce.



Chicken Fricassee. Dinner!
