Despite the name, Chicken Française (French Chicken), is not French, but is actually of Italian-American origin. Though a little challenging to prepare and cook, this dish is actually delicious, with its buttery and tangy sauce tinged with our own substitute for white wine (which was composed of apple cider, balsamic vinegar, and cranberry juice). So how to best describe Chicken Française? Well, it’s a little complex, but if we were to put into words its exciting flavors that one experiences while eating it, Chicken Française tastes provincial. You know, like it reminds you of French villages and gardens away from the hustle and bustle of the city. To put it in another way, this dish is also cosmopolitan: it was made by Italian immigrants who settled in Rochester, New York, and gave it a French name.
