  14. Pour sauce over chicken; place apple slices and chestnuts around chicken for garnish.
  15. Serve at once.
  16. How to clarify butter: Clarified butter is sweet or salt butter, simmered slowly in order to evaporate the water and remove milk solids.
  17. At first a foam will appear, let it continue to simmer until brown specks settle to the bottom and a skin appears on top.
  18. Do not allow melted butter to brown, keep the flame low.
  19. Remove skin or film on the top and allow to cool.
  20. Strain clarified butter, being sure not to include brown sediment.
  21. Prepare a large quantity because clarified butter keeps indefinitely in a covered container.
