Cooking time: 1 to ½ hours
The day before:
Take a plump chicken and flame it to purify the flesh. Cut into pieces, making sure each piece it attached to a bone.
Place the pieces in an earthenware pot. Sprinkle with coarse salt, thyme, savoury or rosemary, leave to rest for one night.
The next day:
1 - In a large cooking pot, fry the pieces in oil or butter on all sides over high heat until golden and add a sliced onion.
2 - Once the chicken is golden on all sides, flambé with a spoonful of marc de bourgogne and add the sliced mushrooms. Add a pinch of coarse salt and cover so that the mushrooms lose their water without evaporating: their juice will give flavour to the chicken meat.
3 - Add the white wine and reduce the heat and cook for 1 to 1 ½ hours, depending on the size of the chicken.
4 - When serving, add fresh cream and an egg yolk to the sauce and check the seasoning.
Serve with boiled pre-cooked whole wheat grains. |
