Ingredients

  • 4 Chicken Thighs
  • 4 Chicken Drumsticks
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 16 Ounces Cremini Mushrooms Sliced
  • 1/4 Cup Celery 1/4-inch dice
  • 3 Cups Carrots 1/2-inch dice
  • 12 Ounces Pearl Onions Frozen, peeled
  • 2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • 1/4 Cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 750 Mililiters Sauvignon Blanc
  • 1 Bay Leaf
  • 2 Tablespoons Fresh Thyme Or 2-Teaspoons dried thyme
  • 2 Teaspoons Salt
  • 1 Teaspoon Black Pepper

Garnish

  • 1/2 Cup Flat-Leaf Parsley Finely Chopped
  • 1/4 Pound Bacon Optional, 1/2-inch dice, crispy

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F
  • Place a large heavy-bottomed, oven-proof pot over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and chicken, brown for 4-5 minutes on each side until nicely browned. Remove from the pot, and remove the skin. Discard the skin.
  • Add the mushrooms, salt, and celery to the pot, cover, and let the mushrooms begin to release their juices, about 5 minutes. Remove the cover and saute until the liquid has almost evaporated.
  • Add the butter and garlic, and saute for 1-minute. Add the flour and stir to coat all the ingredients thoroughly. Add the wine, pearl onions, bay leaf, and thyme then bring to a boil.
  • Once at a low boil, add the chicken so that it is covered by the sauce. Place the uncovered pot into the preheated oven for approximately 35-40 minutes until the thighs register 165°F on an instant-read thermometer.
  • Mix in half of the parsley, serve the Coq au Vin Blanc, and sprinkle the top with remaining parsley and crispy bacon bits.
