Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

8 slices bacon, cut crosswise into thin strips
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 quarter chicken pieces (legs and thighs)
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more for chicken
Freshly ground black pepper
1 (1 pound) bag frozen pearl onions, thawed
8 cloves garlic, smashed
1 pound cremini mushrooms, halved
3 russet potatoes, peeled and cut into large rounds (thirds)
3 carrots, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
4 sprig fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
2 1/2 cups full-bodied red wine
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves, roughly chopped
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Cook the bacon over medium heat in olive oil in a large Dutch oven until crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Season the chicken pieces generously with the salt and pepper and brown the pieces in 2 batches in the bacon drippings. Set aside. Pour off about half of the pan drippings then add the onions, garlic, and mushrooms. Cook over medium-high heat until browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in the potatoes and carrots. Add the 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and the flour, stir to coat the vegetables.
  • Pour in the wine and chicken broth, stir until you don't see any lumps of flour. Add the chicken, thyme, bay leaves, and half of the bacon to the stew. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Cover and braise until the chicken and vegetables are almost tender, about 40 minutes. Uncover and cook until sauce thickens, about 10 more minutes.

Categories     dinner, one pot, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 pound lean salt pork
1 cup peeled pearl onions
1/2 pound small whole mushrooms (cut into quarters if large)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 3-pound chicken, cut into serving pieces
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
2 tablespoons finely chopped onions
2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
2 tablespoons flour
3 cups red wine, like Burgundy or Cotes du Rhone
2 sprigs fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried
1 bay leaf
4 sprigs fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Cut the salt pork into small cubes, about 1/3 inch. Place in a skillet with the pearl onions, cover with water and bring to a boil. Cook for about 2 minutes and drain. Return the salt pork and the onions to the skillet, and cook over medium-high heat for 5 minutes until the cubes of lard start to brown. Discard the fat. Add the mushrooms, and cook for 5 minutes longer or until the mushrooms are lightly browned. Set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a heavy casserole or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper to taste. Add the chicken pieces, skin side down, and cook until golden on one side, about 4 minutes. Cook on the reverse side about 3 minutes. Drain the fat.
  • Add the shallots, onions and garlic. Cook stirring for about 2 minutes. Add the flour, blend well. Add the wine, and bring to a boil to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the bottom and sides of the casserole. Add the onion, mushroom and pork mixture. Add the thyme, bay leaf and parsley. Check for seasoning, cover, and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes or until tender. Do not overcook. Remove bay leaf and serve with fine noodles.

Tips:

  • To make the chicken more flavorful, marinate it in red wine, herbs, and spices for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Use a Dutch oven or large pot with a heavy bottom for even cooking.
  • Brown the chicken in batches in a little olive oil over medium heat, being careful not to crowd the pan. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
  • Sauté the vegetables in the same pot until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the red wine and let it simmer for a few minutes to reduce the alcohol content.
  • Add the chicken broth, tomatoes, and herbs to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Return the chicken to the pot and heat through.
  • Serve the chicken and vegetables over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.
