  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels and season them with salt and pepper.
  2. In a large Dutch oven, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Brown the chicken pieces for 3-5 minutes on each side.
  3. Add mushrooms, shallots, celery, and garlic to the pot. Sauté for about 7 minutes until softened.
  4. Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir. Pour in white wine and add chicken stock, stirring until thickened for 3-5 minutes.

  6. Transfer the Dutch oven to the preheated oven and roast for 40-45 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
  7. Stir in cream until the sauce is smooth. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
