FrançaisPoulet D.G (Chicken Plantains and Vegetables)
Poulet D.G is a cross between stir-fried chicken meal and Fricassee (classic French stew of chicken and vegetables, cooked in white wine and finished with a touch of cream.). There are different variations to this meal depending on the preparation.
Its name suggests that it is superior to other chicken meals and made for the boss (Directeur General). It has evolved from being served in fine restaurants to being included in special occasion meals at home, during festivities, and for honored guests.
