Ingrédients

•4 to 6 pieces chicken thighs or whole chicken cut into 4-6 pieces

•Salt and white pepper to season

•Flour to dust the chicken

•40 g (1.4 oz) butter

•2 small bay leaves

•Branch of fresh thyme

•200 ml (6.8 fl oz)white wine (Chardonnay works well)

•200 ml (6.8 fl oz)or more pure cream (heavy or whipping cream)

•2 egg yolks

•2 to 3 tbsp Dijon mustard

•1 or 2 pinch cayenne pepper

Instructions

MISE EN PLACE

Separate the egg yolks from the whites. Season the chicken pieces with salt and white pepper, then lightly dust each piece with flour. Preheat the oven to 50 degrees Celsius (120°F).

Method

1Melt the butter in a sauté pan or large skillet over medium heat, then sauté the chicken on both sides until golden brown.

2Add the thyme and bay leaf to the pan, then pour in the wine. Cover with a lid and let it cook on gentle heat for 25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

3Scoop out the chicken pieces and place them on a tray or plate. Cover with foil and keep them warm in the oven while you make the sauce.

4Pass the cooking juices left in the pan through a sieve, then return them to the pan. Let the cooking juices reduce on high heat for a minute or two. Add the cream, reduce it for a few more minutes, and then turn off the heat.

5Mix the two egg yolks with a few tablespoons of the sauce, then add the mixture back to the pan and stir gently. Follow by adding the mustard and give the sauce another stir.

6To finish, turn the heat back on very low. Take the chicken out of the oven and pour any cooking juices from the tray or pan into the sauce. Stir gently before adding the chicken pieces back to the pan.

7Warm up the chicken in the sauce until it's hot enough to serve, making sure the sauce never boils (to avoid splitting the sauce).

8Serve directly from the pan or on a warm serving dish, with a side of potato mash or white rice.
