“Fricassee” is a classic French preparation, with pieces of meat, fried or stewed, cooked in a white sauce. (You know the French with their sauces!) We've got the white cream here, rich and delicious, with a splash of sherry. You know the French and their… poblanos? That's where the Southwest comes in! Poblano, sweet corn, and taco seasoning bring the Tex-Mex to Paris. You know Home Chef and its fusion!
