Step by Step Method

Step 1

To make Belgian Chicken Waterzooi, put butter and olive oil in a large Dutch oven or stockpot and place over medium heat until the butter bubbles.

Step 2

Add chicken and stir. Let chicken brown 3 minutes, then reduce heat to low.

Step 3

Add shallots and cook 3 minutes.

Step 4

Add sliced leeks and fennel, and cook 3 minutes or until leeks turn soft.

Step 5

Add carrots, celery, potatoes, stock, beer, bay leaves, thyme, and cream, bringing mixture to a simmer.

Step 6

Cover and cook 25 to 30 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender. Do not bring to a boil, just a light simmer, or cream will curdle.

Step 7

Remove bay leaves before serving.
