Chicken Stew With Vermouth Recipes

CHICKEN STEW

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180C/350F.
• Heat oil in a large pot over high heat. Brown chicken on both sides until light golden, sprinkling with salt and pepper. Remove from pot. (Do in 2 batches if pot not big enough).
• If there's too much oil in the pot, discard some. Add onion and garlic. Cook for 2 minutes until onion is translucent.
• Add carrots and celery, cook for 1 minute.
• Add wine. Stir, scraping the bottom of the pan to dissolve the brown bits into the liquid. Cook for 1 minute until liquid is mostly gone.
• Sprinkle flour across surface, stir.
• Add broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, thyme and bay leaves. Stir to dissolve tomato paste.
• Place chicken on top, keeping the skin above the liquid level as much as you can.
• Bring to simmer then cover. Bake for 45 minutes.
• Remove from oven, remove lid. Add potatoes, pushing them into the liquid and rearranging chicken so they sit on top (for lovely crispy skin).
• Return to oven without the lid for a further 40 minutes until the chicken skin is deep golden and super crispy, the potatoes are soft and the sauce is thickened.
• Taste sauce and adjust salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve with warm crusty bread on the side to dunk in the sauce - or go all the way with Garlic Bread! Optional: garnish with extra fresh thyme leaves or parsley.

MEDITERRANEAN-STYLE CHICKEN STEW RECIPE

Steps:

• Pat the chicken dry and season on both sides with Kosher salt and black pepper.
• In a Dutch oven or large pot, heat 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken and brown on both sides (about 6 to 8 minutes). Remove the chicken and set aside on a plate for now.
• In the same Dutch oven, add the onions, garlic, carrots, bell peppers, zucchini and potatoes. Season with kosher salt and black pepper. Add the spices. Toss to combine and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the veggies have softened some, about 7 to 8 minutes (I like to let them gain a little char too).
• Add the tomatoes and break them up with a wooden spoon. Add the chicken broth and the thyme springs. Raise the heat and bring to a boil. Add the chicken back and cook on high heat for 5 minutes, then lower the heat to medium-low and cover the Dutch oven part-way. Let the chicken stew simmer over medium-low heat for 30 minutes.
• Turn the heat off. Remove the thyme sprigs. Stir in white wine vinegar and fresh parsley and serve

CHICKEN FRICASSEE WITH VERMOUTH

Steps:

• Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper to taste.
• Heat the butter in a skillet and add the chicken pieces skin side down. Cook over moderate heat about one minute without browning.
• Scatter the onion over all and cook 30 seconds. Add the garlic and stir it around. Cook the chicken about four minutes, turning the pieces often in the butter.
• Sprinkle the flour over all, turning the pieces so that they are evenly coated. Add the vermouth, chicken broth, bay leaf and thyme. Cover and cook over moderate heat about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring two batches of water to the boil for the carrots and leeks. Drop the carrots into one batch, the leeks in the other. Let the carrots simmer about one minute and drain. Let the leeks simmer about four minutes.
• When the chicken has cooked for a total of 30 minutes (start to finish), add the carrots, leeks and cream. Let simmer about two minutes. Serve with rice.
