Coq Au Vin
Coq Au Vin
"Cozy up with a bowl of French chicken stew! This easy Coq au Vin recipe is a rich, flavorful combination of braised chicken in red wine with bacon, mushrooms, onion and herbs. Pair the stew with creamy mashed potatoes or a loaf of crusty baguette to soak up all of that delicious broth! Coq au Vin, which literally translates in French to "rooster/cock with wine," is a traditional French chicken stew made with braised chicken in red wine with mushrooms, lardons (here we're using bacon), and sometimes garlic. Julia Child brought coq au vin to mainstream America in her 1961 cookbook, Mastering the Art of French Cooking, and on her cooking show, The French Chef. This peasant stew is an affordable, hearty dish with rich, complex, earthy, aromatic flavors (thanks to the mushrooms and herbs like thyme and parsley), and the more prominent taste of chicken and red wine, which form the base of the stew. It's total comfort food that's perfect for a chilly Sunday supper! "
