Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
6 slices bacon, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
12 chicken thighs (with skin and bones), excess fat trimmed
3/4 cup chopped shallots (about 4)
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound boiling onions, peeled
12 ounces crimini mushrooms, quartered (about 5 cups)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh marjoram
1 750-ml bottle red Zinfandel
2 cups chicken stock or canned low-salt chicken broth
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter, room temperature
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Place 1 cup flour in shallow dish. Cook chopped bacon in heavy large pot over medium-high heat until crisp, about 4 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to bacon drippings in pot. Sprinkle chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Working in batches, coat chicken thighs with flour and add to pot; sear until brown, about 4 minutes per side. Arrange chicken thighs in 15x10x2-inch glass baking dish.
  • Pour off all but 3 tablespoons fat from pot. Add shallots and garlic to pot and sauté 1 minute. Add onions, crimini mushrooms, and marjoram and sauté until onions begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Add red Zinfandel and bring to boil, scraping up browned bits. Add chicken stock and bacon; boil 5 minutes. Pour wine mixture over chicken in baking dish. Cover tightly with foil; bake until chicken is cooked through, about 1 hour.
  • Using tongs, transfer chicken thighs to platter. Strain wine mixture from baking dish into heavy medium saucepan. Transfer onion and mushroom mixture to platter with chicken; tent with foil to keep warm. Mix 2 tablespoons flour and butter in small bowl to blend. Bring wine mixture to boil. Whisk in flour mixture and boil until sauce thickens and is reduced to 2 3/4 cups, about 8 minutes. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Ladle sauce over chicken and vegetables; sprinkle with chives.

This coq au vin recipe is a classic for a reason. It's simple to make and the results are always delicious. I like to use a dry red wine for a more robust flavor.

This coq au vin recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth the effort. The chicken is fall-apart tender and the sauce is divine. I served it over mashed potatoes and it was a hit with my family.

I'm not a big fan of chicken thighs, but I decided to try this coq au vin recipe anyway. I'm so glad I did! The chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.

This coq au vin recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with a rotisserie chicken and it turned out great. The sauce is rich and flavorful and the chicken is tender and juicy.
