'Coq au Vin' is French for chicken with wine. Use a fruity fill-bodied wine and serve with steamed potatoes to mop up the gravy. The flavor deepens after a couple of days in the fridge so be sure to save some for leftovers!

Definitely can not beat this.


Sounds great Lilyann. I love to make coq au vin. You use cognac, I use rum. I think yours is the more traditional. I'll try using the red bell peppers. I love the added piquancy.


Yeah babe. Everybody loves this. Thank you.


Sounds fabulous....I will definately give this one a whirl! Thanks for the great post!


Anything with two cups of wine in it has to be good!
