This Poulet Pacha is a comforting chicken dish where the meat is first browned, then simmered with bacon, onions, garlic, and diced peppers in a tomato and stock base. Herbs like bay leaf and thyme infuse the sauce, which is finished with cream and parsley for a rich, velvety texture. It cooks in about 50 minutes and pairs wonderfully with rice. The recipe yields six generous servings.
