It doesn’t get old and it’s always a crowd pleaser. This way you can relax and make yourself look pretty and avoid greeting your guests red-faced and sweaty.įrench cuisine is so impressive for its ability to be sophisticated and deeply satisfying and comforting at the same time. It could be cooked a few hours in advance, and then reheated quickly right before dinner. It is good enough to serve for a fancy dinner yet doesn’t require much hands-on time. This Coq Au Vin (French for “Chicken in Wine”) is one of those dishes. I am usually on the lookout for the recipes, that are tasty yet simple. It’s done in half the time the traditional recipe takes. I prefer making it in a deep cast iron pan but if you want to make life even easier, take a look at my Instant Pot Coq au Vin. Similar flavours and equally as iconic in the French cuisine as Coq au Vin. If chicken is not your first choice of meat, take a look at my Beef Bourguignon recipe.
It takes very little effort and is the definition of rustic food. No special culinary training is required to ace this French classic. The recipe for chicken slowly braised in red wine is truly outstanding. Cold days are made for cozy and comforting stews. The sight of snow and a definite chill in the air makes me want to spend the day smelling the incredible aroma of coq au vin simmering away in my oven. And this French inspired Spinach Apple Salad with Walnuts and Blue Cheese for a starter. Serve this chicken with a side of Herb and Garlic Mashed Potatoes.
Chicken pieces browned until golden, then slowly braised in red wine with carrots, onions and mushrooms. This classic coq au vin recipe is what it says.
