Critical Success Points

  • Dry‑brining the chicken for at least 6 hours
  • Rendering chicken skin in a cold pan
  • Flambéing the brandy safely
  • Oven braising the chicken until tender
  • Reducing the final sauce to a glossy consistency

Safety Warnings

  • Flambéing involves open flame; keep a fire extinguisher or lid nearby.
  • Hot oil and rendered fat can splatter—use long-handled tools.
  • Oven temperature is high; use oven mitts when handling the pan.
