Poulet Bonne Femme

This is another of Pamela's recipes... we had it for lunch and it was delicious. It is very similar to Coq au vin, but cooked in white wine instead.

Poulet Bonne Femme

200 g of thick bacon

12 small onions

8 chicken breasts, cut into pieces, dredged in seasoned flour (s&p)

1 bottle (75 cl) white wine

1 bouquet garni

8 carrots, cut in 1" rounds

350g mushrooms sliced

parsley for garnish

Cook the bacon and onions in a dutch oven or heavy pot. Remove from pot and brown the chicken. Replace the bacon and onions, pour in the wine and bring to a simmer, turning constantly. Lower the heat and add the bouquet garni and carrots. Cover and let cook for 35 minutes. Add the mushrooms 10 minutes before the end of cooking. Take out the bouquet garni. Goes well with sauteed potatoes, peas, a spinach salad, an ice cream.
