To start off this wonderful blog, I've got a great Coq au Vin recipe. It comes from www.crock-pot.com. I was trying to find some good crock pot recipes (I'm not a big fan of pot roast) and remember seeing a great Alton Brown show about Coq au vin. Anyways, this is now one of our favorites! Recommended for picky eaters.
Coq Au Vin (Chicken braised in wine)
Ingredients:
5 slices bacon, diced
2/3 cup green onions, sliced
3 1/2 lb broiler, cut up (or 6 chicken breast halves) - we used skinless chicken thighs
4 - 6 small boiling onions, peeled
1/4 lb whole mushrooms
6 - 8 small new potatoes
1 clove garlic, minced
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup Burgundy wine
Chopped parsley
Directions:
In large skillet, saute diced bacon and green onions until bacon is crisp. Remove and drain well. Add chicken pieces to skillet and brown well on all sides. Remove chicken and set aside. Put peeled onion, mushrooms, potatoes, and garlic in stoneware. Add browned chicken pieces, bacon and green onions, salt pepper, thyme and chicken broth. Cover and cook on Low 8 to 10 hours or on High 4 to 5 hours. Add Burgundy wine during last hour of cooking.
