From Mme Benoit, "This was a dish for company and
always a source of discussion between my grandparents
as they had to decide which of the chickens were the
most tender. I still have the earthenware dish and I
often (not just for company) make this delicious
casserole.
Quarter 2 very tender young broiler. Roll each piece
in flour seasoned with salt and pepper. Brown in 4
Tbsp butter. Place the chicken pieces,as they are
browned in an attractive ovenproof earthenware
casserole. Add 2 large thinly sliced onions to the fat
in the fry pan, brown, and pour on top of the chicken.
Salt and pepper. Sprinkle with a pinch of aniseed and
savory and pour 1 Tbsp maple syrup over each piece of
chicken. Deglaze the frying pan with 1/2 cup cider or
water and pour over the chicken. Bake 40 minutes,
uncovered, in a 350F oven.
