CREME FRAICHE CHICKEN
When I was an exchange student in France, my French mom made this dish and it has been my favorite ever since. It is chicken breast cooked in butter, creme fraiche and mushrooms over pasta. No one can make it like her, but this is very close. Serve with French bread or French garlic bread if desired. Bon Appetite!

Tips:
- Use fresh garlic. Fresh garlic has a more intense flavor than garlic powder or garlic salt, and it will give your crème fraîche a more authentic taste.
- Roast the garlic before using it. Roasting the garlic mellows its flavor and makes it sweeter. This will result in a more complex and flavorful crème fraîche.
- Use high-quality crème fraîche. Crème fraîche is a fermented cream, and the quality of the cream you use will affect the quality of your crème fraîche. Look for a crème fraîche that is made with fresh, high-quality cream.
- Season your crème fraîche to taste. You can add salt, pepper, herbs, and spices to your crème fraîche to taste. Some popular additions include chives, dill, tarragon, and lemon zest.
- Use crème fraîche as a condiment. Crème fraîche can be used as a condiment for a variety of dishes, such as grilled meats, fish, vegetables, and pasta. It can also be used as a topping for soups, stews, and casseroles.
Conclusion:
Garlic crème fraîche is a versatile and flavorful condiment that can be used to add richness and depth of flavor to a variety of dishes. It is easy to make at home with just a few simple ingredients, and it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
