Chicken stewed in creamy sauce
Description
The flavor of this dish comes from the perfect combination of cream, mustard, and lemon juice. In this case, quite a lot of juice is used—approximately from 3 medium lemons—although you can use less if desired. You can use grainy mustard, or, if you don't like the taste of mustard, opt for a milder, less sharp variety. This recipe for creamy braised chicken is quite simple, so it's definitely worth trying at home.
