Fricassee is a savory dish featuring meat cooked in a creamy white sauce. This versatile recipe can be made with chicken, fish, or beef and is enhanced with mushrooms, peas, or tomatoes.
I am fond of this recipe because it's straightforward, sophisticated, and absolutely delicious.
Cut the chicken breast into cubes, ensuring they aren't too small.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of flour over the chicken and mix gently.
Heat the butter and oil thoroughly in a deep frying pan.
Add the chicken and allow it to cook for about 5 minutes without stirring.
Stir occasionally to brown the chicken pieces evenly on all sides.
Pour in the cream.
Stir and let it simmer for about 5-10 minutes.
As the sauce thickens, add salt, pepper, and optionally nutmeg.
The dish is ready; serve it with your choice of rice, potatoes, vegetables, etc.
Enjoy your meal!
