Belgian Chicken Fricassee (Vol-Au-Vent)

This delicious, creamy chicken fricassee is a classic Belgian recipe. My father used to make this regularly for Sundays and other festive occasions. Often served as a starter, but it is great as a main course as well, accompanied by plain rice or potato puree, for example. Freezes well. Its Flemish name is “Koninginnenhapje”, which could be translated as “Queen’s Nibble”… nice, isn’t it?
