Note

This recipe originally included instructions for Polish Filled Fish and Eels ÃÂ la Poulette, which are distinct dishes not part of the Fried Chicken Soup preparation. They have been excluded from the cooking steps.

For a richer flavor, you can use chicken stock instead of water or part of the cream sauce base.

Adjust simmering time based on the size of the chicken pieces to ensure tenderness without overcooking.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop.
