I like to cook Coq Au Vin in the traditional way when I have time however, that takes days. I have played with it and I think this crock pot version is a great alternative and you can cook Coq Au Vin on a busy weeknight. I have used boneless skinless thighs in place of the chicken legs with thighs. The soup base is not boullion (too salty). This is similar to demiglace and beef or veal can be used.
