Cómo preparar

1
Pat the chicken dry and season it evenly with the salt and pepper. Toss it with the flour until lightly coated, then shake off the excess.
2
Heat a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring, until browned and its fat has rendered. Transfer the bacon to a plate.
3
Add the olive oil to the bacon fat. Sear the chicken in two batches for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until deeply golden; it need not be cooked through. Transfer it to the plate.
4
Reduce the heat to medium. Add the chopped onion and cook for 4 minutes until softened, then add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
5
Pour in 400 ml of the wine, scraping up the browned bits. Simmer for 3 minutes, then return the bacon and chicken to the pot with the stock, thyme, and bay leaf.
6
Bring the liquid just to a simmer, cover, and cook gently for 55 minutes, turning the chicken once, until tender and at least 74°C in the thickest piece.

7
While the chicken braises, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pearl onions and mushrooms with 2 tablespoons of water, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Uncover and cook for 6 to 8 minutes until tender and browned.
8
Transfer the chicken to a warm plate. Remove the thyme sprigs and bay leaf, then simmer the sauce uncovered for 8 to 10 minutes until slightly thickened. Stir in the remaining 100 ml wine and simmer for 2 minutes.
9
Return the chicken, pearl onions, mushrooms, and bacon to the sauce. Warm gently for 3 minutes, taste and adjust the seasoning, then rest for 5 minutes before serving with fresh thyme leaves.

Por qué funciona esta receta

Searing builds savory depth, while red wine, stock, and aromatics slowly soften the chicken and reduce into a concentrated sauce. Mushrooms and pearl onions add contrasting sweetness and texture at the end.
