Chicken Fricassee with Spring Vegetables

by:




Authentic baby peas seem to be in season for only a week or two in June, but frozen peas are the one frozen vegetable that is better than fresh most of the year. Just don't follow the directions on the package and boil them. They have already been boiled at the factory, so all you need to do is heat them through. Makes 4 main-course servings.
