The chicken and rice supreme is a classic French recipe that celebrates the taste of chicken. Plenty of homemade chicken stock is used to poach the chicken then cook a pilaf rice and finally make the famous supreme sauce.

However the big challenge here is to get your chicken stock concentrated enough so that the taste really shine throughout the sauce it si based on.

In this video you will see that I actually went with the idea that I could get away with using the slightly reduce chicken stock I made in previous video and use that for this whole recipe.

Escoffier was hinting on his book that you need to have strong and perfectly reduce stock already at hand plus some other things like chicken essence amongst other thing to get the sauce done right.

Note that to make that recipe properly and finish it in time for serving you need to have at least 2 cups of concentrated chicken stock made from the reduction of 4 cups of the white chicken stock we have made in the previous video)
