Coq au Vin or "rooster in wine" is a traditional French peasant stew that became popular thanks to Julia Child's encouragement. While the original recipe might turn a tough old rooster into something delicious, it's equally delightful with chicken thighs and or legs. Red wine, mushrooms, bacon, onions, and thyme all infuse wonderful flavors into this ultimate comfort food dish. A slow braising technique coaxes a mélange of easy ingredients into a dance of gustatory perfection!
