Coc au Vin Jaune

Coc au Vin Jaune is a rich and flavorful French dish that features chicken slow-cooked in a velvety sauce made with yellow wine, mushrooms, and aromatic herbs. This keto-friendly version is low in carbs while still delivering the savory depth of traditional French cooking.

Ingredients

• Chicken thighs - 400 grams
• Vin Jaune - 150 ml
• Heavy cream - 100 ml
• Button mushrooms - 150 grams, sliced
• Shallots - 2, finely chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Thyme - 1 teaspoon, dried
• Rosemary - 1 teaspoon, dried
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
2. In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken thighs and sear them for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add the chopped shallots and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent.
4. Add the sliced mushrooms and continue to cook for another 5 minutes until they are soft.
5. Pour in the Vin Jaune and scrape the bottom of the skillet to deglaze, allowing it to simmer for about 3 minutes.
6. Stir in the heavy cream, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Return the chicken thighs to the skillet, ensuring they are submerged in the sauce.
7. Cover the skillet with a lid or foil and transfer it to the preheated oven. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
8. Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
