Ingredients

What you'll need

  • 1 lb coq au vin
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp shallot
  • 1 cup fresh thyme
  • 3 cloves dry white wine
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup cracked black pepper
  • to taste good finishing oil
Method

Step by step

  1. Pat the coq au vin dry and season it well so it browns instead of steaming.
  2. Get your pan hot and render the aromatics until they smell sweet and toasty.
  3. Return the coq au vin, add just enough liquid, and simmer until everything is tender.
  4. Taste, brighten with a squeeze of citrus, and plate while it is still hot.
