The perfect recipe to use the first chanterelle.
Sweet chicken, nice mushrooms and tart red currants in the creamy sauce. Very easy to prepare and delicious dinner.
There is so much flavour right here that you can impress anyone. It’s really hearty and tastes like the season.
I love this recipe for the current season

In spite of the fact I do not usually use cream for health reasons this is a lovely recipe to try ! I would have to substitute my favourite currants as they are hard to get here and methinks boned and skinned thighs would be my choice for the chicken. Looks appetizing ! Well, if I cannot get the ingredients here I shall just have to ask you to cook this for me once I arrive on a long planned visit to Tallinn 🙂 !.
