Whether you enjoy cooking and don’t have a lot of time, or don’t enjoy it but still need to for your family, most people share a common interest in eating great food. My recipe, for Slow Cooker Chicken Fricassee, solves the problem.
A fricassee, which I think is just a fun word to say – is pronounced frick-a-sea (really), and is a classic French dish that is a cross between a saute and a stew. It looks and tastes amazing, and super ‘fancy’, but it relies on humble ingredients and you make it all in one pot. Boom!
This dish is simple to make, and it will truly amaze your family and friends – even yourself – at how great it tastes.
