Chicken fricassee (Huehnerfrikassee)

Chicken with mushrooms and peas in a creamy white sauce, served with rice.

Well-cooked hot dish

Ingredients

The chicken is poached, chopped and warmed in a sauce of butter, flour, stock and cream.

Chicken and turkey must be fully cooked; keep raw poultry away from other foods and wash hands and boards after handling it.
Use only pasteurised milk, yoghurt, cream and cheese.
Cool cooked rice within an hour, refrigerate it and eat it within 24 hours: bacteria that make toxins can multiply in rice left at room temperature.
