Chicken chasseur
The reference supporting the claim that Hunter's Chicken and Chicken Chasseur are the same dish dates from 1968 - it is 54 years old. The dish has changed an awful lot outside France in that time, and modern HC has little in common with classic CC apart from the chicken. Ef80 (talk) 15:38, 14 October 2022 (UTC)


 * This - in fact the name of this page is entirely missleading. In the UK (and I believe the US too) "Hunter's Chicken" refers solely to a dish of chicken wrapped in bacon, doused in BBQ sauce and cheese. No one would ever call Chicken Chasseur "Hunters Chicken" because they're two entirely different dishes. I'm unsure why this article is even called Hunter's Chicken - it's frankly wrong. This isn't a matter of some dialect somewhere calling CC "Hunters Chicken", that's just not the accepted norm in almost all dialects of english i've come across. A simple Google Image search for each dish will show wildly different meals.
 * Hunters Chicken (BBQ sauce variant) deserves it's on Wiki page, as does CC. Rock0028 (talk) 18:35, 8 February 2023 (UTC)

Hunter's chicken → Chicken Chasseur – "Hunters Chicken" refers to an entirely different dish, as the article states, only sharing chicken as an ingredient - the specific dish the article details is known universally as "Chicken Chasseur" amongst English Speakers. It is both less ambigious than current name. The article also implies Hunters Chicken includes Chicken Chassuer as a sub-food, which is incorrect, the two are entirely distinct with entirely distinct histories and shouldn't be so forcefully linked together. While yes, in some dialect "hunters chicken" may also refer to CC, surely this is the exception and not the rule, and we shouldn't conflate terms when two entirely unique terms exist for two entirely distinct dishes.

 * Lowercase please: I have no comment on the choice of words, but I see no reason to capitalize Chasseur. If used, perhaps it should be in italics, but not capitalized. This is not a proper name. Dish names are not capitalized on Wikipedia – see Category:Chicken dishes. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 19:52, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Lowercase. We do not capitalize named of random dishes, only where a proper name like Bolognese occurs in one.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  13:56, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Support lowercase. But absolutely. Who on earth calls it hunter's chicken? It's universally known in English as chicken chasseur. In the UK, at least, hunter's chicken is an entirely different dish of chicken breasts wrapped in bacon and smothered in melted cheese and barbecue sauce. Don't know if it has a different name elsewhere. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:52, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
