→ Main Components
04 -
236 g brown mushrooms, just cut in half.
05 -
3 regular shallots, finely chopped.
06 -
44 g salted butter.
07 -
2 celery sticks, diced up.
08 -
3 minced garlic cloves.
09 -
2 tsp fresh or dried parsley, minced up.
10 -
4 g sage, dried or fresh, finely chopped.
11 -
32 g regular flour.
12 -
480 ml chicken broth.
13 -
120 ml dry white wine.
14 -
60 ml cream.
15 -
454 g small yellow potatoes, cut in half.
# Steps:
01 -
Heat your oven to 163°C while you get other things ready.
02 -
Dry the chicken with a towel. Rub a mix of 2 teaspoons salt and half the pepper all over and under the skin.
03 -
Toss the butter into a big dutch oven and let it melt on medium-high. Brown your chicken on every side for a few minutes each, then take it out for now.
04 -
Throw mushrooms, shallots, celery, and garlic into the pot. Stir now and then. When mushrooms let out water and shallots turn see-through (after about 7 minutes), you’re good.
05 -
Sprinkle in the rest of your salt, pepper, parsley, and sage. Toss everything with flour so it all gets coated.
06 -
Pour in the wine and scrape up the good bits stuck to the pan. Add your chicken stock little by little while stirring. Let it bubble a bit until it’s just a thin gravy (about 5 minutes).
07 -
Drop your potatoes into the pot. Put the browned chicken pieces on top of everything else.
08 -
Pop on a lid or some foil, then transfer the pot into the oven. Let it cook for around 40–45 minutes, until the chicken’s at 74°C inside.
09 -
Take it out of the oven. Pour in the cream and blend it into the sauce. Cover it up and let it sit for 10 minutes before you dig in.
10 -
Make sure you serve every plate with some chicken, potatoes, mushrooms, plus a good spoonful of that creamy sauce.
# Notes:
01 -
Let the seasoned chicken sit for 20 minutes before browning if you want deeper flavor.
