Method

Prepare fresh or dried morels*. Cut the chicken* in 8 pieces. Heat half the butter in a heavy casserole, add the chicken pieces and brown them on all sides over a medium fire. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and remove. Add the remaining butter and the morels to the casserole and cook over a high fire for 5 minutes. Stir in the wine and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the pan juices. Return
