Critical Success Points

  • Browning the chicken to develop fond.
  • Deglazing with white wine and reducing the liquid.
  • Reducing the strained broth before adding cream.
  • Adding cream at low temperature to avoid curdling.

Safety Warnings

  • Hot oil can splatter – keep a lid nearby.
  • Handle the pot with oven mitts; the handle becomes very hot.
  • Ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 °F (74 °C).
