Рецепт Chicken Francaise
This delicious chicken francaise is from one of the best Italian cooks I know and it’s easy too!
Authentic Italian Family Recipes
I’m always saying my friend Claudia is the best Italian cook on the planet. It’s the truth and I don’t heap praise such as this often…she just is!
Lucky for everyone, she’s just published a cookbook, and it has recipes passed down from her mom and grandmother.
As soon as she told me the book was available, I just had to have one!
It Was Hard To Choose…
When I first received Claudia’s cookbook, “A Taste of Love,” I wanted to make everything! It was hard to choose what to make first.
I always wanted to try chicken francaise, and I knew Claudia’s recipe would be delicious. It’s simple too.
You can substitute veal or even fish for the chicken.
A friend who is not fond of lemon absolutely loved this and asked me to make it for him again. I consider this the best endorsement!
Simple Yet Elegant
This is a very simple recipe to prepare.
One thing I would recommend is that you use fresh parsley, lemon juice and garlic.
Fresh always tastes best!
