Critical Success Points

  • Marinate the chicken overnight for optimal tenderness.
  • Sear the chicken in two batches to retain the pan's heat.
  • Reduce the sauce until a thin layer of oil appears, indicating the spices are well incorporated.
  • Add the cream over low heat to prevent it from separating.

Safety Warnings

  • Manipuler le poulet cru avec des ustensiles séparés pour éviter la contamination croisée.
  • L'huile chaude peut éclabousser : porter des manches longs et un écran anti-éclaboussures.
  • Utiliser des gants de cuisine lorsqu'on manipule la poêle très chaude.
