Chicken Fricassee 2 Preparation
Heat oven to 200 degrees F. Rinse chicken pieces, pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Heat olive oil and only 1 tablespoon butter in a large, deep skillet, cast iron preferred. When foam subsides, add chicken pieces in two batches, starting skin side down and brown both sides over medium high heat, a total of 10 to 12 minutes. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons fat. Return all chicken to the skillet add stock, bring to a simmer, and cook gently for 25 to 30 minutes until chicken has cooked through. Be sure that the thigh meat is thoroughly cooked. Remove chicken to a bowl and place in oven. Strain cooking liquid through 4 layers of cheesecloth. (You can skip the straining for a less refined dish.) Return sauce to skillet. While the chicken is cooking, melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a separate skillet. When hot, add the onions and mushrooms and saute over medium high heat, stirring frequently, until mushrooms release their liquid, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in the cream and season liberally with salt, pepper and freshly grated nutmeg. Whisk this mixture into the broth in the skillet over medium heat. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 to 6 minutes or until sauce thickens slightly (it should be the consistency of half and half). Arrange chicken on serving plates and cover with sauce. (This recipe makes 3-1/2 cups of sauce. You will have leftovers.) Garnish with an abundance of parsley.
