SENSUAL CHICKEN WITH CHAMPAGNE
I came up with this recipe because I made Sharon 123's recipe for Recipe #144056 and thought it would enhance this dish nicely. Of course you can use olive oil. I was going for a chicken paprikash dish without the fat of sour cream and add lots of veggies like carrots, mushrooms and onions. Makes it a light dish for Valentines Day--saves room to share a sensual dessert for two!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Heat a large, heavy-bottomed Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When hot, add the oil. Season the chicken on both sides with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Working in batches so as to not crowd the pot, sear the chicken, skin side down, until golden brown, about 6 minutes per batch. Brown briefly on the second side, then transfer the browned chicken to a plate.
- Add the garlic to the pot and cook, stirring, until lightly golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the lemon juice, Champagne, broth, and thyme, and return the chicken to the pot, nestling the pieces down into the liquid. Make sure some of the garlic is sitting on top of the chicken. Bring the liquid to a boil, cover the pot, and place in the oven. Cook, stirring once midway to ensure even cooking, until the chicken is falling-off-the-bone tender, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Transfer the chicken and some of the garlic to a platter, and cover to keep warm. Remove and discard the thyme sprigs.
- In a medium bowl, mash the flour and butter together to form a smooth paste. Slowly whisk 1/2 cup of the hot juices from the pot into the paste until smooth, then add this mixture to the pot along with 2 tablespoons of the parsley, and whisk to combine. Don't worry if some of the garlic cloves get smashed -- they will help to thicken and enrich the sauce. Cover and cook over medium heat until the gravy has thickened, 10 to 20 minutes longer. Season the sauce with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, or more to taste. Serve the chicken with the gravy spooned over the top and sprinkled with the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley.
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: For this recipe, it's best to use a whole chicken that is about 3-4 pounds. You can also use chicken breasts or thighs, but the cooking time may vary.
- Season the chicken well: The key to a flavorful chicken is to season it well. Use a generous amount of salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as paprika, cumin, or oregano.
- Brown the chicken before cooking: Browning the chicken in a skillet before cooking it in the oven helps to develop flavor and color. Be sure to brown the chicken on all sides.
- Use a good quality champagne: The champagne you use in this recipe will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Choose a champagne that is dry and has a good balance of acidity and sweetness.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is best when it is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooking the chicken will make it dry and tough.
Conclusion:
Sensual chicken with champagne is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The combination of chicken, champagne, and mushrooms is simply divine. This recipe is sure to impress your guests and leave them wanting more. So next time you're looking for a special dish to make, give this sensual chicken with champagne a try.
