Coq au Vin in a Slow Cooker

Coq au vin is a French dish of chicken braised with wine, lardons (or bacon), mushrooms and pearl onions. More traditional versions of coq au vin have the sauce thickened with rooster blood at the end of cooking - yeesh! You will be pleased to know that I did not thicken my sauce this way!

Browning the bacon, chicken and vegetables briefly before adding them to the crock pot creates deep rich flavors in both the chicken and sauce. Serve with a crusty baguette.

Buttermilk Chicken

This is the most moist, tender chicken I have ever made. Buttermilk Chicken is a must to add to your repertoire. I have a half a carton of buttermilk in the refrigerator, so when life gives you buttermilk make this chicken! This is the most moist, tender chicken I have ever made. I did marinate it for a full 24 hours, due to the fact that I was too tired to cook the night before! I also cut the breasts in half before marinating.

Chicken Zorba

This Chicken Zorba recipe is my nephew’s favorite dinner. It’s a recipe from a Sainsbury’s card from the early ’90s. I have to say, I understand why it’s his favorite dinner. The chicken is so tender (due to marinating it overnight) and flavorful. Also, the hummus and Greek yogurt mixture is heaven!
