Light Chicken Fricassée (French Chicken Stew)
I discovered the beautiful blog of Sonia (“La Cuisine de Boomy” @soniab57) through her fantastic Facebook Group “tests de recettes entre blogueurs”. This Group is a GEM and Sonia and her team have been so welcoming from the get-go! This February 2023 our Group Challenge was to pick a “WINTER COMFORT FOOD RECIPE” from another blogger. Hence, I fell in love with Sonia’s recipe because she made a light version of a French Classic. Of course, you will find her recipe right HERE!
I hope your will Enjoy this French Classic as much as I did! Bon Appétit!
As always, you will find the Step-by-Step Video below the recipe.

Light Chicken Fricassée (French Chicken Stew)
Equipment
Ingredients
- 5 Chicken Thighs
- 1/2 onion (medium | Chopped)
- 8 oz (225 g) white mushrooms
- 8 oz (225 g) shiitake mushrooms
- 1 Tbsp (14 g) Tuscan Oil
- Sel Gris Mill (Season to Taste)
- Pepper Mill (Season to Taste)
- 3 1/2 oz (100 g) white wine
- 7 oz (200 g) Chicken Stock (Original Recipe Calls for Water )
- 1 Tbsp (12 g) sour cream (Light)
Instructions
GETTING STARTED
COOK!
- Heat a large frying pan on medium-high. Once hot, pour the Tuscan Oil. Add the chicken thighs and cook for 4 minutes until golden brown. Turn and cook the other side for 1 minute.
- Bring the heat down to medium: Add the chopped onions, mushrooms and season with Salt and Pepper (To taste). Make them sweat for about 8 minutes. NOTE: This will allow the vegetables to soften without taking on any colour.
- Pour the white wine and stir to dissolve the brown residue stuck to the pan into the sauce. Let it evaporate.
- Adjust the heat to medium-low, then pour the water and cover with the lid. Let it simmer for 20 minutes.
- Once your Light Chicken Fricassée is ready, combine the sour cream. Serve hot with your favorite side! Enjoy and Bon Appétit!
