Ingredients[edit | edit source]

The main ingredients in Poulet au fromage are chicken and cheese. The type of cheese used can vary, but it is often a soft, creamy cheese such as Brie or Camembert. Other ingredients can include onion, garlic, white wine, cream, and herbs such as thyme and parsley.

Preparation[edit | edit source]

To prepare Poulet au fromage, the chicken is first browned in a pan. The onions and garlic are then sautéed in the same pan until they are soft and fragrant. The cheese, cream, and wine are added to the pan and heated until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens. The chicken is then returned to the pan and simmered in the sauce until it is cooked through. The dish is typically garnished with fresh herbs before serving.
