Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon or pancetta sliced
- 3 chicken drumsticks
- 3 bone-in chicken thighs
- 1 quartered onion
- 4 large sliced carrots peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 ½ cups red wine of choice
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 6 ounces sliced mushrooms
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a large Dutch oven or cast iron pan, add 6 slices bacon or pancetta sliced, and cook and crumble until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon.
- Add 3 chicken drumsticks and 3 bone-in chicken thighs and sear on each side for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Remove and set aside on a plate.
- Add 1 quartered onion, 4 large sliced carrots, and 3 cloves minced garlic, and cook until almost tender, 3-4 minutes.
- Add in 2 tablespoons tomato paste, 2 cups chicken broth, and 1 ½ cups red wine of choice. Bring to a boil and then add the chicken back to the pan. Cover the pan and place it in the oven to braise for 30 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven and set it on the stove. Carefully remove the lid and take out the chicken, and set it aside.
- Take ½ cup of the sauce and whisk it with 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour. Put it back in with the vegetables with 6 ounces sliced mushrooms and bacon, and cook until the sauce has thickened and the mushrooms are tender.
- Add the chicken back to the pot and let it simmer until heated throughout.
