chicken fricassee
I tried several different chicken fricassee recipes and combined the best elements to build my own version. Using pre-chopped, -sliced, and -shredded vegetables keeps prep time minimal, and using skinless thighs and low-sodium broth makes this rich dish a little bit healthier. You’ll need a good large, high-sided skillet to make this heavenly-smelling entree. Serve it with rice or noodles to make good use of all that delicious sauce!
