Even my FFF cousin makes this lol. Good for during the year too and low fat. I know some people have the minhag not to use garlic during Passover - you can omit but it won't be as good. Adapted from Steven Raichlen's Healthy Jewish Cooking.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: For the best flavor, use a whole chicken or chicken parts with the skin on. Bone-in chicken will also yield more flavor than boneless.
  • Brown the chicken: Browning the chicken before adding it to the fricassee will help to develop flavor and color.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for carrots, celery, and onions, but you can also add other vegetables such as potatoes, parsnips, or turnips.
  • Season the fricassee well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to season the fricassee. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Simmer the fricassee gently: The fricassee should be simmered gently for at least 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
  • Serve the fricassee hot: Passover chicken fricassee is best served hot, with a side of matzo balls or noodles.

Conclusion:

Passover chicken fricassee is a delicious and festive dish that is perfect for the Passover holiday. This recipe is easy to follow and can be made with a variety of vegetables. With its rich flavor and tender chicken, this fricassee is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
