Answer 1

What is the "fond" word pertain to?? What you will need is a large deep skillet (12") a good knife and some forks and spoons. Follow your recipe in the order that you have written it...that's the way each item should be taken care of....The whole thing will probably take you about 1 hour, give or take.....it sounds tasty...

Answer 2

a) Allow 20 minutes.

b) Allow 30 minutes at stage 7

c) -

d) By the time you want to eat?

e) Prepare as set out.

I would start an hour before dinner time to prep that lot and to get everything else ready, so they will all come together at the same time.

Answer 3

Preparing the entire meal could take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour, depending on your skill level. My guess since you are asking these things is that you have no experience. As for prep, start with the tomatoes, they have to be seeded and finely diced. Follow with the onions, then garlic, then basil. After your veggies are prepped, prep the chicken. Once it is dredged in the flour, place it in a hot pan, with room temp oil or butter. Brown on both sides, remove from heat, finish in a 400F oven for about 8-10 minutes. You dont have to put the chicken aside like the recipe says. You can cook it while you are finishing the rest of the sauce. After the chicken has left the pan, add onions, and saute until tender. Add tomatoes, and cook until soft. Add garlic and basil. Saute until fragrant. Deglaze with white wine and lemon juice, and reduce til almost gone. Add chicken stock, and reduce. Pour over chicken, and enjoy.  Equipment needed:

A saute pan(skillet)
