French Chicken Recipes

If you’ve got a penchant for poulet, these French chicken ideas are tres magnifique!

A 30-minute coq au vin using rotisserie chicken is a time-honoured classic, and if you’re looking for weeknight meals for the family, try a chicken paillard with a creamy Parmesan salad, a tangy tarragon chicken with lemon, or crispy-skinned chicken a l’orange, a tasty twist on the traditional duck dish. Provencal roasted chicken with honey and thyme, served with buttered root vegetables and Jacques Pepin-style Maris Piper potatoes is a Sunday spectacular, and French chicken dishes don’t come any more luxurious than chicken liver pâté with apple and date chutney on a crispy sliced baguette.

Our French chicken recipes are an extravaganza of exquisite eats!
