Preparation

1

In a cocotte, brown the pieces of chicken (skin on) until they turn a nice golden color. Pour the wine and water over the chicken. Add salt and pepper. Cover and cook for 20 minutes on medium heat.  

2

While the chicken is cooking, peel the onion, clean the button mushrooms, and remove the stems. Cut each mushroom in half. Set aside.  

3

Melt the butter in a pot and brown the onion and mushrooms. Set aside.  

4

Remove the pieces of chicken from the cocotte and set them aside on a plate. Reduce the cooking liquid by half (around 10 minutes), add the heavy crème fraîche, and reduce the liquid again for 15 minutes on low heat.  

5

Reheat the chicken on low heat in the cream sauce for 5 minutes. Put the chicken on plate, cover it with the sauce, and add the mushrooms on top.  

6

Serve with white rice, fresh pasta, or seasonal, steamed vegetables.
