Print this Recipe


   3 chicken breasts skinned, halved and boned
   6 chicken thighs skinned
   2 1/2 teaspoons salt
   1/2 teaspoon black pepper
   All-purpose flour
   4 tablespoons butter or margarine
   6 slices bacon cut in 1" pieces
   1/2 cup onions chopped
   2 sprigs parsley fresh
   1 bay leaf
   1/2 teaspoon thyme dried
   2 cups zinfandel wine California light red wine)
   1 cup chicken broth canned or your own stock
   12 onions small, peeled
   3 tablespoons butter or margarine
   3/4 pound mushrooms fresh, cleaned and quartered
   2 tablespoons cornstarch
   1/4 cup cream
   1 tablespoon butter or margarine
   Fresh parsley


Dust chicken with salt, pepper and flour. Sauté in 4 tablespoons butter or margarine until golden brown; remove from skillet and keep warm. Add bacon to skillet and sauté a few minutes without browning; add 1/2 cup chopped onions, parsley, bay leaf, thyme, wine and chicken stock. Bring to boil and simmer 10 minutes without cover. Return chicken to skillet and cover. Simmer for 1/2 hour.

In a small skillet, simmer peeled onions in a small amount of water until tender-crisp, about 20 minutes. Remove onions from water (which should be almost evaporated) and sauté in 3 tablespoons butter or margarine until browned. Remove from pan; add quartered mushrooms and over high heat, brown, turning frequently. Add onions to mushrooms and heat for 1 or 2 minutes before adding to chicken on serving platter.

Remove chicken from sauce and keep warm. Discard bay leaf. Mix cornstarch with cream and add a bit of warm sauce to this mixture. Combine cream mixture with wine sauce and continue cooking and stirring until it thickens, about 5 minutes. Add 1tablespoon butter or margarine to sauce in bits and quickly take off heat. Return chicken to sauce and simmer 1 or 2 minutes to heat through.

On heated platter, arrange chicken and surround with onions and mushrooms. Pour sauce overall and sprinkle with parsley.

Note: If made the day before, heat covered in a moderate oven.
