CHICKEN FRICASSEE (FRICASSEE DE POULET A L'ANCIENNE)



Chicken Fricassee (Fricassee de Poulet a L'Ancienne) image

Also see our step-by-step photo tutorial for making Chicken Fricassee. A fricassee is halfway between a saute and a stew. A true classic -- with as many variations as there are grandmothers in France -- it relies on humble ingredients and just a single pot. It's the original French comfort food: simmered chicken with hearty vegetables in a rich, silky sauce. And almost as satisfying as the dish itself is having our one-pot master recipe in your repertoire.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 whole chicken (3 1/2 to 4 pounds), cut into 11 pieces (reserve back and wing tips for another use, such as stock)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, divided
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 small yellow onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice (1 cup)
1 carrot, cut into 1/4-inch dice (1/2 cup)
1 celery stalk, cut into 1/4-inch dice (1/3 cup)
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, trimmed and quartered
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2/3 cup dry white wine
4 cups chicken broth
2 sprigs fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
2 large egg yolks, room temperature
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 to 3 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh tarragon leaves
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Brown ChickenSeason chicken on both sides with 1 tablespoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Preheat a Dutch oven or other large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter and the oil to pot. When butter melts and foam subsides, add half the chicken, skin side down, in a single layer; do not crowd pot. (If butter begins to blacken, lower heat.) Fry chicken, turning once, until golden brown on both sides, about 10 minutes total, and transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining chicken.
  • Saute MirepoixReduce heat to medium, and add mirepoix (onion, carrot, and celery) to pot, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Saute mirepoix, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden brown in places, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Cook Mushrooms and FlourAdd mushrooms, and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms darken, become glossy, and begin to release liquid, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in flour, and cook until flour is absorbed by vegetables and is no longer visible, about 1 minute.
  • Pour in Wine and BrothAdd wine to pot, and bring to a boil, stirring until liquid just thickens, about 45 seconds. Add broth, and stir.
  • Simmer ChickenPlace chicken, skin side up, in a single layer on vegetables; pour juices that have accumulated on plate into pot. Tie parsley sprigs, thyme sprigs, and bay leaf together with kitchen twine; add to pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover partially. Cook until internal temperature of thickest part of chicken registers 165 degrees, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer chicken to a clean plate. Simmer liquid, uncovered, until reduced slightly, about 5 minutes. Discard herbs.
  • Make and Add LiaisonTo make the liaison (sauce thickener), whisk together egg yolks and cream in a medium bowl. Whisking constantly, pour 1/2 cup cooking liquid, 1 tablespoon at a time, into liaison to temper it. Stir tempered liaison into pot.
  • Finish with Tarragon, Lemon, and ButterReturn chicken to pot. Add tarragon, lemon juice, and the remaining butter. Bring to a simmer, stir gently to combine, and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken pieces: For a classic fricassee, bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts or thighs work best. The bones and skin add flavor to the dish.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: A heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the chicken from burning.
  • Brown the chicken first: Browning the chicken before adding the other ingredients will help to develop flavor and color.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Feel free to add your favorite vegetables to the fricassee. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, peas, and mushrooms.
  • Simmer gently: Bring the fricassee to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and the chicken to become tender.
  • Serve over rice or noodles: Chicken fricassee is traditionally served over rice or noodles. However, you can also serve it with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Chicken fricassee is a classic dish that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it can also be made with fresh chicken breasts or thighs. With its creamy sauce and tender chicken, chicken fricassee is a comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day.
