Chopped Mushrooms for the dish
Chasseur: The name is derived from the French word for “hunter”. Sauce chasseur, sometimes called “hunter’s sauce”, is a simple or compound brown sauce used in French cuisine. It is typically made using demi glace or an espagnole sauce as a base, and often includes mushrooms and shallots. It may also include tomatoes and a finishing of fine herbs. The chicken is browned in fat, then cooked in demi glace with red wine, mushrooms and shallots.

Pommes Fondant
To add to the rustic flavor of Chicken dish, we made Fondant Potato which was cooked in stock and butter till the water evaporates and gives the potato a nice brown and crunchy crust with a deliciously soft center.
