CLASSIC CHICKEN IN RED WINE

Steps:

• Cook the bacon over medium heat in olive oil in a large Dutch oven until crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Season the chicken pieces generously with the salt and pepper and brown the pieces in 2 batches in the bacon drippings. Set aside. Pour off about half of the pan drippings then add the onions, garlic, and mushrooms. Cook over medium-high heat until browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in the potatoes and carrots. Add the 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and the flour, stir to coat the vegetables.
• Pour in the wine and chicken broth, stir until you don't see any lumps of flour. Add the chicken, thyme, bay leaves, and half of the bacon to the stew. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Cover and braise until the chicken and vegetables are almost tender, about 40 minutes. Uncover and cook until sauce thickens, about 10 more minutes.
• Stir in the parsley and vinegar. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste, and serve with the remaining bacon.

CHICKEN WITH OLIVES AND WHITE WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Remove the skin from all chicken and wash well.
• Pat chicken dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Heat chilli oil in the pot. If you do not have chilli oil, you can make some easily. You will need to take olive oil and heat it up (do not burn it!). Add lots of red pepper flakes and let it simmer (without burning the flakes)for about 5 minutes. Once the mixture is cool, that's chilli oil.
• Add the chicken to the pot with the meatiest parts on the bottom.
• Brown the chicken for about 10-12 minutes, making sure it doesn't stick to the pot or burn. Turn over if necessary. You may add more chilli oil if you think it's required.
• Add the chopped capers, garlic, olives and parsley to the pot. If you'd like extra sauce and olives or capers in this recipe, you can add them freely. I usually add lots of olives, so that everyone gets a huge scoope of them on their chicken.
• Add the white wine to the pot. If you don't think there's enough sauce for your meal, then add extra white wine.
• Stir a bit so that everything is nicely mixed.
• Cover the pot and allow the chicken to fully cook in the boiling white wine sauce.
• Serve hot. Nice sides are rice, pasta or salad.

SAUTEED CHICKEN IN RED-WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper.
• Heat the butter in a skillet large enough to hold the chicken in one layer without crowding. Add the chicken pieces skin-side down.
• Cook and brown the pieces over medium-high heat about 6 minutes. Turn the pieces and cook about 5 minutes longer.
• Add the mushrooms, onions, shallots and garlic and stir to blend over high heat for about 3 minutes.
• Remove most of the fat and sprinkle the flour evenly over all. Stir and cook for one minute.
• Add the Cognac and ignite it quickly. Add the wine, chicken broth, bouquet garni, salt and pepper. Stir and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook 20 minutes or until tender. Remove the cover and simmer to reduce the sauce if necessary. Remove the bouquet garni and serve.
