I made this last night for dinner. My husband said he could smell the wonderful aroma walking up the driveway. I had a quality white wine on hand so used it, a Pinot Grigio, and I added a small amount of cornstarch and water to make a thicker sauce. The chicken falls off the bone, and everything else melts in your mouth. We used spoons to get every drop of sauce!

maybe one of "the best" recipies, and dinner we ever had! Well, not for anything...but if it is Jeffery's favorite, how could it be anything but!!!! My husband loved it. It was a beautiful marriage of flavors..so simple to make, and sounds as if you fussed for hours. And yes, of course I served it with the garlic mashed potatoes.....and what do you think????? It was GREAT! Thanks Ina

Wonderful receipe..I used organic ingredients....the kitchen smelled like a family restaurant in Lyon.I removed the chicken from the pot and reduced the sauce further,then reheated the chicken in the pot.Uses only one pot,reminds me of France..."How good is THAT".Nancy,Pt Richmond

Ina is one of my favorites and generally I love her food, but this was a disappointment. There was way too much liquid, so much that it was more like a soup than a stew. Following the directions exactly, (I used a very good Pinot Noir, as recommended on the TV program the flavors were ok but the chicken was overdone. There was also too much grease from the bacon and the chicken skin, even though I partially drained the pan when cooking the carrots and onions. My coq au vin looked nothing like what she prepared on the show. Will discard the recipe permanently.

This was simple to make and delicious. The aroma filled the entire house. Since I'm low carbing, I omitted the flour and butter to thicken the sauce. I thought the sauce was delicious. I used a pinot noir and cognac. I usually hate chicken dishes but this was wonderful.

It looked SO GOOD on her show, that I was excited to make Coq Au Vin.

But here is how it tasted: winey, bland, liquid chicken with little onions and mushrooms slipping off the plate. The chicken had ONLY the flavor of wine, I could not taste the brandy, the butter or the thyme.

I would not make this again.

An elegant and delicious dish. My husband couldn't stop raving about it. I liked how easy and uncomplicated it was to make. Thank you Ina.

This recipe was fabulous. My family kept commenting on the wonderful aroma throughout the house as it was cooking. The meat was tender and wonderful. This was very simple and easy to make, yet elegant and full of flavor. I used fresh small onions. If you do the same, a quick way to peel them is to cook them in boiling water for 2 minutes and then put them in cold water. They peel very easily after that.
