CHICKEN SUPREME (SUPREMES DE VOLAILLE)
This is one of my favorite chicken dishes. It's something like chicken corden bleu but much better. A friend's mother was a caterer this was one of her most popular recipes. She says the recipe takes a little time (about an hour or so) but it's well worth it. The dish can be frozen for 2 to 3 months and it gets better when you reheat it.
