thin slices. Sautee in a small amount of butter in a medium skillet.
Melt butter in a large skillet. Stir in flour. Cook, stirring

Worcestershire sauce, wine and lemon juice. Place chicken pieces,
sauteed mushrooms and peas in sauce; warm gently over low heat. When
all ingredients are hot, turn off heat. Let stand 3 to 4 minutes.
Before serving, blend egg yolk and whipping cream in a small bowl.
Stir egg yolk mixture into sauce to make it smooth and rich. Serve
hot with rice.

for weight loss
and dieting

Cooking more low fat chicken can enable you to lose weight gradually as part of a a controlled and healthy diet.

The chicken is the country's, but the city eats it. - George Herbert
