Poulet mijoté au vin rouge : Une ode à la simplicité

Chicken, with its tender, juicy flesh, is one of the most versatile dishes in the kitchen. In this recipe, we combine it with our signature red wine to create a rustic, yet refined dish that evokes memories of fall, crackling fireplaces and cozy family meals.


Chicken Stewed in Red Wine

Ingredients :

  • 4 chicken thighs (top and bottom)
  • 750 ml of our red wine
  • 3 carrots, sliced
  • 2 onions, minced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 250g mushrooms, sliced
  • Bouquet garni (thyme, bay leaf, parsley)
  • 3 tablespoons of olive oil
  • Salt pepper
  • 1 tablespoon of tomato puree

Preparation :

  1. In a large casserole dish, heat the olive oil and brown the chicken thighs on each side. Take them out and set them aside.
  2. Add the onions, garlic and carrots to the pot. Fry them until they are tender.
  3. Add the tomato puree and mix well.
  4. Place the chicken thighs back in the casserole. Pour the red wine over it.
  5. Add the bouquet garni, the mushrooms, then season with salt and pepper.
  6. Cover the pot and simmer for 1 hour 30 minutes over low heat.

The combination of red wine with chicken results in a rich, deep sauce that is both comforting and delectable. It is a dish that recalls the very essence of traditional French cuisine.
