This is a French chicken dish cooked with vegetables, herbs and burgundy wine that is absolutely marvelous. I make it for special occasions and am always complimented on it. Serve with hot cooked noodles, crusty French bread and a green salad, if desired.

Time 1h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 cups small whole fresh mushrooms
1 cup thinly sliced carrots
1 cup Burgundy wine
16 pearl onions, peeled
1 tablespoon bacon bits
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
2 cloves garlic, minced
¾ teaspoon dried marjoram, crushed
¾ teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
½ teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 ½ cups cold water
⅛ cup all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Spray a large non-stick skillet with cooking spray. Saute chicken over medium heat for about 15 minutes, or until lightly browned on both sides.
  • Add the mushrooms, carrot, wine, onions, bacon bits, parsley, garlic, marjoram, thyme, bouillon, pepper and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low; cover and simmer for 25 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside.
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer chicken, mushrooms, carrot, and onions to a platter, discarding bay leaf; cover to keep warm and set aside.
  • In a small bowl combine flour and water and whisk together. Stir mixture into skillet and cook until thick and bubbly, 5 to 10 minutes. Cook and stir 1 minute more and pour mixture over chicken and veggies. Serve warm.
