Frequently Asked Questions About Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal
What is Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal?
Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal is a chicken dish served with Café de Paris-style sauce, commonly alongside fries and salad. The exact sides and chicken preparation vary by restaurant, so the name does not guarantee a fixed recipe or portion.
What is Café de Paris sauce made of in Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal?
Café de Paris sauce commonly combines butter, cream, mustard, herbs and seasonings. Recipes differ between restaurants, and some add ingredients such as curry or garlic. The sauce in this meal contains dairy and mustard, so it is not a dairy-free or mustard-free choice.
Where did Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal get its name?
Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal takes its name from its sauce, which is associated with the Café de Paris restaurant in Geneva, Switzerland—not Paris. The sauce became known with meat dishes and is now used in restaurant variations featuring chicken.
Is Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal spicy?
Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal is usually savory and herb-forward rather than hot. The sauce recipe can vary, though, and a restaurant may add chili or other pungent seasonings, so ask about the heat level if you are sensitive to spice.
How do you make Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal at home?
To make Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal, cook the chicken separately and prepare the sauce gently before serving it over the top. Avoid overcooking the chicken, and warm the butter-and-cream sauce over low heat rather than letting it boil hard.
What should you serve with Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal?
Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal is commonly served with fries and salad. At home, crisp green vegetables or a sharp, lemony salad balance the rich sauce; roasted potatoes are another option if you want a less greasy alternative to fries.
Can you freeze Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal?
You can freeze the cooked chicken from Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal, but the cream-and-butter sauce may separate or turn grainy after thawing. For better results, freeze the chicken and sauce separately, or make fresh sauce when you serve the thawed chicken.
How should you store leftover Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal?
Refrigerate leftover Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal promptly in a covered container, keeping the fries separate if possible. The fries lose their crispness when stored with the sauced chicken, while separating the components makes reheating and serving more appealing.
How do you reheat Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal without splitting the sauce?
Reheat Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal gently in a covered pan over low heat, stirring the sauce as it warms. Avoid a rolling boil, which can split the cream-and-butter sauce; add a small splash of water if it has thickened too much.
Why does the sauce in Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal split?
The sauce in Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal can split when it gets too hot or boils rapidly, causing its fat and liquid to separate. Keep the heat low, stir while warming, and take the sauce off the heat as soon as it is hot.

What is Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal?
Cafe de Paris Chicken Meal usually brings together grilled or pan-cooked chicken, Café de Paris sauce, fries and a side salad. The buttery sauce is flavoured with herbs and spices; despite its name, it is associated with the Café de Paris restaurant in Geneva rather than originating in Paris.
The sauce is savoury, rich and aromatic, coating the chicken, while crisp fries and fresh salad add contrasting textures. It is commonly served as a restaurant lunch or dinner, and a simple green salad or water makes a good accompaniment. Nutritionally, it provides protein, but the butter-rich sauce and fries make it relatively high in calories and saturated fat: it contains 215 kcal per 100 g. For a lighter plate, ask for the sauce on the side and swap some of the fries for extra salad.
