Instructions
 

  • Cut the chicken into 8 pieces, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, then fry the bacon until it's crispy. Remove the bacon from the pan, and reserve it.
  • Add the chicken pieces to the Dutch oven, and cook until they're browned. Remove the chicken from the pan, and reserve it.
  • Add the onions, garlic, and mushrooms to the Dutch oven, and cook until the onions are translucent.
  • Add the flour to the pan, and stir well.
  • Add the red wine and chicken broth to the pan. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the chicken, bacon, and thyme to the pan.
  • Cover the Dutch oven, and cook the mixture over low heat for about 2 hours.
  • Once the chicken is cooked through and tender, remove it from the pan, and reserve it on a plate.
  • Raise the heat to medium-high, and reduce the sauce by half. Add the butter to the pan, and stir well to incorporate.
  • Serve the chicken with the sauce spooned over the top.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

The chicken should be cooked until it is tender enough to allow the meat to fall off the bone. Give enough time for the chicken to braise in the wine sauce, as this is what imparts the rich flavors to the dish.
