I love a good, one pan dinner and this One Pan Coq Au Vin Blanc helps you make an elevated dish in one pan, following a few simple steps. With a hearty list of ingredients making an infamous Coq Au Vin, French flavor combo between the chicken thighs cooked with bacon, shallots, garlic, mushrooms, white wine, rosemary, thyme and fresh cream. The choice of egg noodles, mashed potatoes or some crusty French baguette, for dipping, gives you so many different ways to enjoy serving this dish.
To make One Pan Coq Au Vin Blanc, you will need the following ingredients:
In a low dish, season 6 chicken thighs with kosher salt, ground pepper and all-purpose flour, if using.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and add 4 slices of bacon which has been cut into 1-inch pieces and cook for about 2-3 minutes until almost crispy. Drain excess fat, if you wish.
Add 8 ounces of quartered mushrooms, 2 finely chopped celery, 2 thinly sliced carrots, 3 cloves of garlic, and 4 quartered shallots. Cook, stirring continuously, for about 7-8 minutes until the bacon is extra crispy and the mushrooms have browned.
Move the vegetables to the side of the pan, leaving space for the seasoned chicken thighs. Place the 6 chicken thighs, skin-side down and cook for about 4 minutes on each side. If the thighs do not fit then cook in batches, as needed. Take care not to burn the vegetables.
Add 1½ cups of white wine, ½ teaspoon of fresh thyme and 2 teaspoons of freshly chopped rosemary. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover the pan with a lid and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked through and the sauce has slightly reduced.
Remove the chicken from the heat and transfer to a serving plate, increase the heat and pour in ½ cup of heavy cream. Stir to combine with the vegetable sauce mixture and boil for about 5 minutes until the sauce is thickened.
To serve, pour the sauce over the chicken thighs sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon of thyme and parsley for garnishing. Best enjoyed with egg noodles or mashed potatoes.
