Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Coq au Creme Recipe). This is a French recipe taught to me by one of my husband's Moroccan cousins. It's super easy, and can be doubled for a larger dinner party. It's great served with a Caesar salad and lots of French bread to dip in the creamy sauce.
