    My husband made this last night for a dinner party and it was awesome! Everyone loved it and we were all licking our fingers. Although I didn't cook it, it really didn't take that long. We served it with some bread and butter to soak up the yummy sauce. We're keeping this recipe!

    I made this for a date night with my husband. How romantic. The house smelled like France all afternoon. I will definitely make this recipe again.

    This recipe is fantastic. I always thought making Coq au Vin was really hard, but Anne made it easy. I did not have a whole chicken so I used 8 chicken thighs I had defrosted. I was also out of brandy so I sub dry sherry instead. It was still great. My family could not get enough of it.

    I love the way that Anne writes her recipes. Her 'helpful hints' are always spot on. I made this recipe and followed the recipe to the letter (with the exception of using a hen vs. capon. Normally, my family is very vocal about new recipes......especially if they like them. I'm sorry to say though that there was silence around the dinner table when I served this dish.

    Based on feedback, I would cut down on the tomato paste a bit and use a better stock for a richer taste. I would also serve this over mashed potatoes instead of cooking the potatoes with the dish.

    Thanks though Anne, you're a STAR!!!

    Absolutely fabulous!. This is the best Coq au Vin recipe I've ever tried and well worth the effort. It's even better than Julia's recipe. Thanks Chef Anne.

    I made this today after watching the show. It was really good. I used a regular chicken and store-bought chicken stock. Make sure you really brown the chicken well so its crispy when it goes in to the sauce. I did have to skim fat from the sauce and I did have to simmer the sauce for ten minutes after removing the chicken, but it does thicken up. My family loved it. Don't leave out the brandy. It's a key ingredient.

    So far it is deliscious, but haven't decided if it is worth all the work. The dish is on it's last simmer at the moment and so far it tastes really good. Lets see what the family thinks in a little while

    So Kristen, did you give one star to the recipe or to Don?

    Made this tonight for my husband and my kitchen is a mess and the dish was not good. OK - not great. I followed the recipe to the letter except did not add brandy, There wasn't much taste. Why bother to fry chicken when you end up stewing it? Thanks anyway Anne.
