I've made this recipe three times and it has been a hit every time. I make it ahead of time (for company) and then put it in the oven to finish it. I never use clarified butter and have substituted sour cream for the creme fraiche when I can't find it. It's still yummy. The sauce is lick the plate delicious and the morels - there is no substitute for - so don't even try.

I made this exactly according to the recipe and won raves at a dinner party. I think perhaps I cooked the sauce down a little too much - not enough sauce for me - but I stretched it with additional heavy cream. Terrific with wild rice, angel hair or linguine pasta. This one will be on my menu often - thanks Ina!
Wonderful!

No clue how I will top this dish at my next dinner party. It is so full of flavor, my guests were wowed beyond belief! I did not find it to be too pricey. Morels are available at a "reasonable" price on Ebay, and Madeira is not expensive at all at Trader Joes. Worth every dime as it was far cheaper than dining out... I will make this time and time again! Thanks Ina!!!
Awesome!

I've made this dish twice now and my guests and family loved it! Even my two kids who don't like mushrooms. I couldn't find morels one time and substituted with a blend, I didn't think it was as good but still delicious. Morels lend such a wonderful flavor to this dish, they are worth the extra price.

I made this for a small dinner party the other evening, and one guest upon arriving at my door asked me what that wonderful smell was. I told her that it was "Chicken with Morels". She said it smelled sinfully fantastic, which I took as a great compliment. When dinner was served, everyone commented on how great the dish was. I did not change anything including the pricy morels. I have read other comments where the wine, Maderia, was thought to be too expensive. I disagree, finding it in my grocery store at just $3.99 a bottle. I also found it at Bev mo for $10.00 a bottle. This will be one of my very favorite recipes to make in the future. Thank you Ina for yet another winner !

After my husband and I took our first bite we could not stop saying "MMMMMMMMM" through the entire meal! I did halve the recipe as it is just the two of us, but kept the same amount of sauce, as I like more if you need it for rice, etc. Since I totally lucked out and found dried morels on sale I splurged on a really good bottle of Madiera. It definitely made a difference in taste since the mushrooms soak up alot the ingredients. Next time (oh and there will be a next time) I will use light cream. I wouldn't normally serve chicken to guests, but this recipe gets ushered to the top of my list!

I made this for Valentines Day dinner and it was a hit with my husband and kids. I substitited baby portabella's for the morels and sherry for the Madeira since that's what I had on hand. I made my own creme fraiche (recipe can be found on internet). It was a superb dish that I will absolutely make again.

This is my "gold standard" for chicken recipes! Ina's recipes are perfection! Trust the recipe, and you and your guests will be sooo rewarded! Yes, the ingredients can be pricey - esp. the morels - but for a special occasion, it is simply untouchable - and it's chicken!! And you can do it all ahead of time and then reheat as she suggests, or what I did was prepare everything down to the oven time - wait for your moment - then pop it in the oven till hot and bubbly! Perfection! Thanks so much Ina - you are such an inspiration to just regular gals like me!

This recipe is wonderful!! I served it last night at a dinner party to rave reviews. Since we're pheasant hunters, I used pheasant breasts rather than chicken. YUM!! I subbed sour cream for creme fraiche, and used the dried mushroom mixture from Costco (which includes morels) and sauteed baby bellas for the morels. I used truffle salt and truffle oil for an additional layer of flavor. I served this dish with a combination of wild rice and barley cooked in chicken stock. So dinner last night was courtesy of our two wonderful pheasant hunting dogs!!

I followed this recipe to the letter and had high hopes given all the other reviews. It tasted good, however, I found the Madeira to overpower the dish- it was all I could taste. I would have liked the sauce to showcase the morels more, especially since they are so expensive. If I make this again, I will use cremini or button mushrooms.

This is an EXTREMELY rich dish but so delicious. However, I draw the line at spending that much money on mushrooms, for goodness sake. I'm surprised Ina suggested a substitute for creme fraiche and not morels. I used button mushrooms. Creme fraiche I found in the cheese department at my supermarket, believe it or not. I've made it a number of times and it's always good and easy to make.

I made this for my husband and his eyes bulged out on the first bite because the mushroom reduction is so intense. [I may have reduced a bit too much] This doesn't mean it is at all bad, in fact he asked me to make it again as it was very tasty and a real change from boring chicken dishes. Just warn him next time.....

User: Kathy from Pasadena, CA User Rating:
This was a wonderful recipe. It was easy, if not cheap to make. Worth every penny though! Those who didn't use creme fraiche are missing out; sour cream is not the same taste or texture. Also morels are heavenly and I wouldn't substitute white mushrooms, no comparison. I did substitute brandy for the Madeira wine because I didn't want to buy a bottle and only use a cup of it. I had good brandy and it was fabulous. I also used just a little lemon juice so as not to fight with the brandy. However, next time, I might add chopped fresh flat leaf parsley at the end. I don't know though because I really loved this dish the most! I think it's the best thing I've ever made and I'm a pretty good cook!
Worth the trip to 5 markets to make!

I put more time tracking down the ingredients than in making the dish - but it was worth it. Creme fraiche was eventually found (wish there were an understandable English translation....only one store had a clue), but I had to substitute fresh morels (1/4 lb. at $39.99/lb.) as the dried ones could not be found. Served this for a Mother's Day brunch and it was a huge hit for all the mothers. They're still talking about it, well over a month later.

I made this recipe with all the listed ingredients three days ahead of my party. As I was "slowly" reheating, the heat accidentally got turned up to high and the dish actually boiled for a few minutes. I thought all was lost, but turned down the heat and served it as planned. It was wonderful! Everyone raved and left with the recipe. I made 8 chicken breasts instead of 6 and still had about 2 cups of sauce left over. I actually made the whole whole menu from this show following Ina's make-ahead schedule. Even I had a great time since everything was ready before my guests arrived. Thanks Ina.

Nice chicken dish. I may be picky but I'm the daughter of immigrants from Madeira. I STRONGLY feel that accurate information should be given on national T.V.!!! Madeira wine (used in this dish)is NOT a Spanish wine as Ina stated in this episode!!! It is a PORTUGUESE wine made on the island of Madeira, Portugal! I don't think it's too much to expect chefs to get the ingredients right!

This sauce is to die for. I just wanted to keep eating and eating it. I did alter the recipe just a bit, using sour cream instead of creme fraishe and since I couldn't find the morels, I bought dried porcini mushrooms instead. However, at our specialty store I did find the dried morels ($14.99/oz), so bought them. I ended up using both of them. I also only used half the lemon juice as I didn't want to over power the maderia with citrus!! Outstanding recipe!!!!!!

So easy to make and so delicious. It took no time to make but it sure doesn't tate that way. It is hard to find Madeira wine and sometimes hard to get the dried morels; try not to use substitutes it makes a big difference in how the dish comes out. It does taste bad just not as good :)

I received Ina's Parisian cookbook for Christmas and this is the first recipe I've made from it. Although I had to go to a specialty grocery to find dried morels (and a 1-oz jar was $15), it was worth it. It was absolutely delicious and my friends enjoyed it. I'd be interesting in trying it with another, less expensive type of mushroom- that way I can make it more often!

Throwing caution to the winds, I served this for the first time to the most discerning French dinner guests. It just sounded like a great recipe and I totally trust Ina. Well, it was a grand success. I live in the middle of NYC and I didn't need to substitute any ingredient, though I was surprised at the price of the morels and the Madeira. But I always honor the original chef by not substituting on the first go around if at all possible. I did the whole thing as she suggested. It was grand. If there were a 10 star catagory, I would put this recipe in it. It is the best. My guests raved about it for days and gave me far more credit for my cooking skills than I deserve. Ina is the one who deserves this credit. I had the pleasure of seeing Ina and Jeffrey Garten a few days after the dinner party in a restaurant in Paris on Christmas Eve. It was all I could to do to respect their privacy and not go dashing over to tell her how much I loved this recipe. If you read this Ina, it was me with my son in....! Thank you. Thank you.

I watched the show and really wanted to try the recipe. I did not want to spend the big bucks on the morels and substituted with white button mushrooms instead. Also, I was gonna spend around $15 for the Madeira at a local liquor store and was told to buy the cheaper brands as it did not make a difference (so I spent about $5 for the bottle). Also, didn't have enough shallots at home and added some finely chopped onions as well. The chicken came out really good. I liked it very much. Had a restaurant quality to it.

I made the entire meal featured on the 5 day make ahead for a dinner party. My guests were so impressed. I only made two substitutions - sour cream for cream fraiche and I used Citron olive oil for the dressing which gave it a richer lemon flavor. I made everything ahead of time but in the future I would make the macaroons fresh that day. They were so easy and I think were better the day they were made. Otherwise, everything was perfect.

User: JULIE from del mar, CA User Rating:
the sauce was exquisitely perfect--which is sometimes tricky with heated dairy products--but the timing on the breasts was too short and the morels weren't enough contrast to the rich sauce. at the price or morels, i'd skip this ingred. and maybe go with peas and proscuito or something to really make you appreciate that sauce. i would increase the creme fraiche and cream so you had more sauce, especially if you were serving rice or something with the meat. if you insist on staying with morels, you could halve the amount( and the cost...there are 8.00 per 1/2 ounce where i live) and still have plenty for everyone in my opinion. thanks, Ina, for your wonderful show and books.

The ingredients aren't that easy to obtain. For example, living here in Voorheesville I had to make my own creme fraiche. This recipe is EASY to make. The most difficult part is getting the stuff. I bought a very good Madeira wine (I spent about $17.00) It was worth every penny. The sauce is absolutely delicious. I rarely serve chicken for company, but this one I would. DIANE

My husband and I that this was awesome! Since it was just the two of us eating I halved the recipe, but added the original amount the recipe called for of shallots and garlic. Also keep in mind that morels are expensive (1 ounce will run about $15). The recipe is worth every penny if you want to impress. Call me lazy, but since the grocery was out of clarified butter I used Olive Oil to cook the chicken in on the stove top, wiped out the pan with paper towels and added 2 T. of butter to saute the shallot mixture in. I served this along with the Arugula with Parmesan salad (same show). The dressing could use a little work. Also included Sauteed Spinach with Anchovies, Garlic and a touch of truffle oil. What a Meal!

Used this recipe for a wonderful change up for chicken. Surprisingly, my husband loved it and he dislikes chicken. He said that we could have it again and again. We ate it two nights in a row. Unheard of in this household. The leftovers were just a great as the original meal. Thank you wonderful Contessa. I love this recipe.
I want more....
