Chicken cooked in wine with herbed dumplings

Forget Yorkshire puddings, this new take is a fresh perspective - by Better Homes and Gardens

Chicken cooked in wine with herbed dumplings
Andre Martin
Prep: 20 Minutes - Cook: 100 Minutes - Intermediate - Serves 6
Proudly supported by

The classic French dish of coq au vin becomes even more generous with this version’s cheesy dumplings to mop up the juices.

Ingredients

• 1⁄4 cup plain flour

• Sea-salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper, to season

• 6 chicken Marylands

• 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

• 6 eschalots

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 6 rashes rindless bacon, cut into 2cm strips

• 500ml dry white wine

• 250ml chicken stock

• 150g cup mushrooms

• 2 fresh bay leaves

• 3 sprigs thyme

 

Ingredients for the dumplings:

 

• 11⁄2 cups self-raising flour

• 1⁄8 tsp sea-salt flakes

• 1 Tbsp finely chopped thyme leaves

• 30g parmesan, grated

• 50g butter, chilled, chopped

• 1 free-range egg, lightly beaten

• 125ml milk

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Put flour in a large bowl and season. Add chicken pieces and toss well to coat.

  2. Heat 1 Tbsp of the oil in a large ovenproof saucepan over a medium heat. Add eschalots, garlic and bacon. Cook, stirring occasionally, for  5 minutes or until eschalots, garlic and bacon are golden. Set aside on a plate.

  3. In same pan, heat 1 Tbsp of the remaining oil. Add 1⁄2 of the chicken pieces and brown, turning occasionally for about 5 minutes or until well browned. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining oil and chicken.

  5. Meanwhile, to make dumplings, combine flour, salt, thyme and parmesan in a bowl. Add butter and rub in until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Make a well in the centre and add egg and milk, stirring until just combined and a soft dough forms. Make 10 balls of dough and put on top of chicken, about 2cm apart, and cook for a further 25 minutes or until golden and cooked through. Serve.

     

    Oh! And if you needed some wine to make this gastronomic feast a possibility, we've got some greta options over on BHG Shop for a steal.
