Coq au Vin
What a beautiful dinner this turned out to be. I highly suggest serving it with egg noodles. I served it with wheat penne. It was still good, but I think egg noodles would be better.
What's Needed:
4 slices turkey bacon
1 1/2 C. frozen pearl onions
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp. dried thyme leaves
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 C. dry red wine
3/4 C. fat-free chicken broth
1/4 C. tomato paste
3 T. flour
1. Cook bacon. Crumble after cooking.
2. Layer ingredients in slower cooker: onions, crumbled bacon, garlic, thyme, pepper, chicken, wine, and broth.
3. Cover. Cook on LOW 5-6 hours.
4. Remove chicken and vegetables. Cover and keep warm.
5. Ladle 1/2 C. liquid into bowl. Turn slow cooker to high. Cover.
6. Mix removed liquid, tomato paste, and flour until smooth.
7. Return mixture to slow cooker. Cover. Cook 15 minutes or until thickened.
Husband's Grade: C (I thought it was about a B)
