Chicken Forestiere

What is it?

Forestiere sauce, typically built around mushrooms and cream with onion or herbs, gives this frozen meal an earthy rather than tomatoey or spicy character. Breast pieces sit in the creamy sauce with visible mushroom slices throughout. In the frozen meals range, it sits closer to the classic British-leaning comfort end than to the curry or pasta dishes. It's designed to be heated from frozen, then stirred once or twice so the sauce and meat warm through evenly. Expect a pale, creamy finish with a soft, savoury mushroom backbone running through every bite.
