Directions

40 min.
1. Step

Let's start with the chicken. Clean and cut into 8 pieces. Then salt and pepper the pieces. In my experience, it's better to marinate the chicken the day before, so the flavours come together better.

2. Step

Slice the bacon, onion, carrot and celery.

3. Step

In a large frying pan, fry the bacon in olive oil. When crispy, remove and set aside. Fry the chicken pieces in the remaining fat. Then take them out and set aside.

4. Step

In the same pan, fry the onion, then add the vegetables and mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper and cover. Leave to soften for 15 minutes.

5. Step

When the vegetables are soft, sprinkle in the flour and stir to thicken. Then pour in the wine and chicken stock. Stir until the flour is completely dissolved.

6. Step

Add the chicken pieces and bacon and cover the pan. Cook over a low heat for 1 hour.

7. Step

Add the fresh herbs in the last 15 minutes.

8. Step

Serve the coq au vin with a fresh, crispy baguette. Rich with fresh vegetables and crispy bacon, it is a delicious dish made special by the complexity of flavours created during cooking.
