Directions
Crock Pot Chicken With Mushrooms and Leeks (Low Carb), Normandy inspired chicken with easy, homemade crme frache Simply amazing Goes perfectly with a side of green beans; also wonderful with sugar snap peas, asparagus or spinach Notes on crme frache: If you’re concerned about the thickness of the finished sauce, mix up the crme frache a couple of hours ahead of starting the rest of the meal Crme frache thickens as it stands and the thicker it is, the thicker the finished sauce will be; many recipe call for leaving it out around 12 hours, or even up to 24, to set up It is the bacterial cultures in the sour cream acting on the heavy cream that cause it to thicken and sour slightly, but from what I’ve read, it’s a beneficial bacteria and perfectly safe to eat even when left out for that long (at any rate, I’ve left it out for that long and my family ate it and was perfectly fine) If you’re concerned about the fact that it’s a bacteria at all, heating it after it’s thickened will kill the bacteria; the taste will be the same, but it will break down slightly and make the texture a little grainy , This was a wonderful dish The first one I attempted in my new crockpot The flavor was excellent I forgot to leave out the creme fraiche and needed to drain more of the sauce or maybe even reduce it on the stove to keep all the flavor I would also reduce the cooking time or chill the chicken as mentioned by peeblyweebly
I can’t wait to make it a second time it should be perfect!, I prepared this dish exactly as written and served it over Recipe#60413 This dish was delicious, hearty, and perfect served over hot popovers I was proud to serve it to my family
