Coq Au Vin Stew
Ingredients
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 3
    pounds chicken thighs, skinned
  • 1
    envelope beefy onion soup mix (1/2 of a 2.2-ounce package)
  • 1 1/2
    cups loose-pack frozen small whole onions
  • 2
    cups fresh button or wild mushrooms, quartered
  • 1/2
    cup dry red wine
  • Hot-cooked mashed potatoes (optional)
  • Snipped fresh basil or parsley (optional)
Directions

1. Lightly coat a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Cook chicken thighs, several at a time, in the hot skillet until brown; drain off fat. Place chicken thighs in a 3-1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker.

2. Sprinkle chicken thighs with dry soup mix. Add onions and mushrooms. Pour wine over all.

3. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 5 to 6 hours or on high-heat setting for 2-1/2 to 3 hours. Using a slotted spoon, remove chicken from slow cooker. Use a fork to remove chicken from the bone, shredding it into bite-size pieces. Discard bones. Return chicken to mixture in cooker. If desired, serve with hot mashed potatoes and sprinkle with basil. Makes 4 servings.

I recently made this dish for a group of 10 dinner guests. I wasn't sure if 32 thighs would cook evenly in the slow cooker so I baked it in a 325 degree oven for 2 - 2 1/2 hrs. I also added 1 1/2 cups of wine and 1 cup of water to make sure it wouldn't dry out. It turned out very well and I would prepare it this way again when making it for a large group.

Absolutely loved this recipe. Easy to make, full of flavor and not too expensive. I served this dish with thick cuts of french bread. Definitely recommend!

This is a super easy recipe & tastes great! Just wondering if anyone has tried to double or triple the recipe in the slow cooker for larger groups?
