Im not saying I make the best Chicken a la Crema, but I am saying that my version looks the least like a cream sauce. Nevertheless, despite its less than creamy appearance, this really is an easy, and truly amazing chicken stew, featuring our old friend, crme fraiche. And yes, sour cream will work Either way, this is one of my favorite chicken dishes of all time. Steve: Chef John, this looks good, but removing the skin removes a lot of flavor, i leave the skin on, being a 57 yr, old Irishman from rural Kentucky & been cooking since I was 9 yrs. old. I'd like to see your take/recipe on southern wild puffball mushrooms. They are minimum size of a soccer ball & can be as large as huge watermelon if you can get them. They are white & when sliced down the middle look like the inside of fresh buffalo mozzerella cut in half, density & all, if they are off colored like tan or have spores or small mushrooms in the middle they are no good & can make you ill. You can slice them & make like large portabella mushroom steaks, etc, available in spring & fall in the southern states, but most prevelant here in Kentucky, give it a shot as they are delicious.

You know, since you mention making Creme Fraiche, I figured I would mention a method I found that gives me far faster and more reliable results. Bear in mind that you are the first that inspired me to make it and I used your method for a long time. I have an instant pot with a yogurt setting, that holds temperature right at 90F. Now I don't put the creme directly in the pot, but instead put it in my vessel that it is going to live in just like your method. I then fill the instant pot up roughly about 1/3 of the way and set the vessel with the creme and buttermilk mixture into it with a paper towel and the lid loosely on top. I use the paper towel as I think it helps absorb any excess moisture, though It might not do much more than make me feel safer. Anyhow I just set the timer for 12 hours and put the lid on and forget about it until 12 hours later. After that I pull the vessel out, dry off any excess moisture and put it into the fridge over night. Perfect creme fraiche every time, and I don't tie up my oven. This method has been so successful for me that I've started making excess and turning it into cultured butter. Thank you again for starting me on this path in the first place.

Chef John. I am currently operating a kitchen where the owners are contemplating using our stock and manpower to help by delivering nutritious meals to at risk and needy populations in my community. Given your experience, what would you recommend as a low risk(for allergenic sensitive individuals) and low cost for the restaurant, meals that can be mass produced? We are a gastropub who makes most items in house using standard American fare.

Oh, slurp That sounds great. However, as you know, it's only day 1 of the Bay Area Shelter-in-Place directive. I want to eat down, what I have in stock. But, if I get too stir-crazy, I may venture out for chicken, and peppers. I think that I have everything else. (And, as always. thanks)

sour cream or cream friache isnt all that common where im from but is it totally crazy to substitute them with greek yogurt and maybe a splash of milk and some butter? (might as well go out with an entire dairy trifecta while im making hypothetical substitutions)

Your videos are so inspiring and make me wanna cook so bad I binged a ton of your videos one day and couldn't stop cooking for about two weeks straight because I was so excited, I've gotten really good at cooking thanks to you and Gordon Ramsay lol

Great chicken recipe chef John. Caramelizing the veggies and the addition of tomato giving it that deep hearty flavor. Skimming the fat and reduction hits the next level. Great one pot winter meal.

I peeked inside my refrigerator and all I found was some moldy cheese a half a loaf of stale bread 3 bottles of beer and a soggy bag of celery, So l didn't add anything extra to this recipe. JK
