The sister of the famous recipe with chicken: coq au vin blanc. Fresh, sparkling flavors and very delicious! Because of the added herbs and vegetables, it got a lot of flavors.
A recipe for coq au vin blanc as the French say or just plain chicken in white wine (doesn't sound that great isn't it). It's a variation on the classic coq au vin which is made with red wine. In this recipe, white wine is used instead. I've added some bacon, veggies, and herbs to give it even more flavor. The chicken was so done, the meat fell off the bones. Tip: Serve this with a salad and some potatoes.
