Fricase de Pollo...

Today's Special:
Chicken Fricassee

A dish of meat (usually chicken) that has been sautéed in butter before being stewed with vegetables. The end result is a thick, chunky stew, often flavored with wine. fricassee v. This word is also used as a verb, as in to "fricassee a chicken."
fricassee [ˌfrɪkəˈsiː ˈfrɪkəsɪ ˈfrɪkəˌseɪ]

It could also be described as a stew, and we can make it with any meat actually. Adding yellow cooking wine gives it that extra kick. YUM...
