The chicken fricassée you surely never tried! | One pot Wonders - Ep. 1

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

white wine

🥗Healthier: non-alcoholic white wine

💰Cheaper: chicken broth

Non-alcoholic options retain flavor without alcohol

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil is healthier and adds richness

chicken broth

🥗Healthier: vegetable broth

💰Cheaper: water + seasoning

Vegetable broth is lighter and can be made at home

Melt butter in a cast iron pot over medium heat.

Season chicken pieces with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Sprinkle flour generously on each piece of chicken.

Add chicken to the pot skin-side down and cook until lightly colored, in batches if necessary.

Remove chicken and add onions and mushrooms to the pot, cooking on low heat until they sweat and release flavor.

Return chicken to the pot and sprinkle with another tablespoon of flour, mixing well.

Add white wine to the pot and stir while bubbling.

Top up with water to barely cover the chicken.

Add bouquet garni, bay leaves, and carrots to the pot.

Cover and simmer for about 35-40 minutes, removing chicken breasts after 15-20 minutes to prevent overcooking.
