Gluten-Free Coq au Vin with Mushroom and Bacon Bits

This delicious gluten-free coq au vin with mushroom and bacon bits is a hearty and flavorful French classic. The combination of mushrooms, bacon, and flavorful herbs creates a delectable dish that can be served for a special dinner or as an easy weeknight meal.

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 strips bacon, diced
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 2 cups gluten-free chicken broth
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 tablespoons gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, for garnish

Directions:

  1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the bacon and cook until crispy, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the thyme, rosemary, and white wine, and cook until the liquid has reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the chicken broth and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the chicken pieces. Simmer for 10 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
  4. Mix the flour with a few tablespoons of cold water to make a slurry. Add the slurry to the skillet and stir to thicken the sauce.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve over cooked gluten-free rice or mashed potatoes, garnished with the parsley.
  6. Enjoy!
