Chicken Fricassee can be awful.. I have played with some great fricassee recipes and came up with this. One thing-do not overdo the cream you still need to taste the beefiness of the mushrooms.

Ingredients
  • 4 bone-in, skin-on split chicken breasts
  • Salt and Pepper
  • 2 tsp. vegetable oil
  • 2 onions, chopped fine
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 12 oz. white mushrooms
  • 4 large portobello mushrooms; remove gills
  • 1 tbs minced thyme; preferably fresh
  • 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
  • 1 c. chicken broth low salt
  • 1 c. beef broth low salt
  • 1 c. white wine
  • 1/3 c. heavy cream
  • 4 tsp. lemon juice
  • 2 tbs. fresh chopped parsley

Directions
  1. Dry chicken and season with salt and pepper
  2. Heat oil in Dutch oven over med-high heat until just smoking
  3. Cook chicken skin-side down, until deep golden brown, about 6 minutes
  4. Flip and brown on second side-4 minutes
  5. Transfer chicken to a plate; remove and discard skin
  6. Pour off all but 1 tbs. fat from the pot.
  7. Cook onions in the fat until golden-5 minutes
  8. Stir in garlic and cook about 30 seconds
  9. Add the mushrooms, thyme, 1/4 tsp salt
  10. reduce heat to medium and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms have released their juices; about 10 minutes
  11. Uncover and until liquid evaporates and mushrooms begin to brown
  12. Stir in the flour and cook until golden, about 1 minute.
  13. Slowly stir in the broths and wine and bring to a boil.
  14. Return chicken and any juices to pot.
  15. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, until meat registers 160*, 20-30 minutes
  16. Transfer chicken to a serving platter and tent with foil
  17. Add cream to the pot and simmer until sauce is thickened, about 15 minutes.
  18. stir in lemon juice and parsley. Pour sauce over chicken
  19. Serve with egg noodles, rice or biscuits
  20. I also use dark meat but I never do the white and dark together-it won't work
