Coq au Vin Blanc

Succulent chicken with cremini mushrooms braised in white wine and a splash of cream. I present to you Coq au Vin Blanc!

Coq au Chardonnay

What country is coq au vin blanc from?

If you are looking for a bit of comfort food with a touch of elegance, this French recipe for chicken, slowing braised in white wine, is for you. 

When people think of French cuisine, images of perfectly and beautifully plated food immediately come to mine.

Well, this recipe is nothing like that. Fear not…it is simple and quick. It requires a very few ingredients you most likely have on hand. 

This braised chicken recipe is one of the finest examples of French country cooking.

Far, far away from classically trained chefs. Just skilled home cooks creating rustic, beautiful and delicious food for their families. 

Coq au Chardonnay

How do you make coq au vin?

To add to the simplicity of this chicken braised in white wine, there is also a convenience factor.

This dish is cooked in one pan and boasts tender succulent chicken thighs and legs swimming in creamy gravy like sauce. Did I also mention that there is bacon involved? Mmmm…

Coq au Chardonnay

As I mentioned earlier, all you need is a handful of ingredients but how, you might wonder, it can possibly develop such deep and gratifying flavours?

My answer is simple and as old as the world. Wine and slow cooking. 

What wine is best for coq au vin blanc?

You can use any dry white wine for this recipe. I’ve used Chardonnay but Sauvignon Blanc or dry Riesling will also work beautifully. I do not recommend using cooking wine. 

The reason I recommend dry white wine is because sweetness in wine tends to concentrate when it’s cooked down. So if you start with sweet wine, you will end up with very sweet dish after 40 minutes of simmering. 

You might be wondering what wine does to the chicken and how it enhances flavour. In other words…

Is it really worth it to cook with wine?

They short answer is absolutely. Unless you abstain from alcohol for medical or religious reasons, I would encourage you to give cooking with wine a try. 

The reason it works is because adding wine is like adding a concentrated flavour boost to your food. 

Wine makers have worked long and hard to develop those flavours.  All you have to do is to pour it in, sit back and let it simmer happily for 40 minutes.

Then reap the benefits and receive well deserved compliments from your loved ones.

Coq au Chardonnay

Is it safe for children and pregnant women to eat the food cooked with wine?

If you are concerned about cooking with alcohol or feeding your children “winey” chicken, don’t be!

Alcohol will cook out of the dish in the process of simmering! There will be traces left but truly negligible amount to be considered unsafe. 

All you will be left with is creamy sauce and scrumptious chicken as acid from the wine permeates it and makes it irresistibly tender. 

If you are a red wine lover, try one of my favourite recipes here for Coq au Vin, which also happens to be dairy free.

How long does it take to make coq au vin blanc?

This recipe might be a bit more hands-on than you’d like to invest in for a regular weeknight dinner. It will take you approximately one hour to make. 

However,  do save this chicken recipe for a weekend because you will absolutely fall in love with the complex flavours and will cook it again and again!

Coq au Chardonnay

Can I make coq au vin ahead and freeze it?

Yes you can!

Just make sure to add about 1/2 cup/125ml to 1 cup/250ml of chicken stock when reheating it as you are bound to lose some sauce in the process. 

What can I serve with chicken braised in white wine?

For a full French inspired dinner, serve this coq au vin with mashed potatoes or sweet potato and rutabaga mash if you are feeling more adventurous and a salad on the side. This apple, walnut and blue cheese salad will do nicely.

Good quality baguette is also highly recommended.

    Julia ~ Thank you so much for sharing your recipe! A friend of mine made this dish, in a skillet (I’m going to make mine in my cast iron skillet), with rice (no bacon). It was so yummy! I have asked her repeatedly for the recipe and she somehow always, ALWAYS changes the subject, never sharing the recipe (stingy!). I don’t mind sharing recipes, it makes me feel good that someone loves it enough to ask! I am going to make this meal this upcoming weekend – with bacon! Seriously, who doesn’t love bacon? So glad your recipe calls for onions! My friend didn’t use them in her recipe either – bacon and onions = great yummy combo! I absolutely love onions (and they, along with garlic, are great against colon cancer). I add onions in just about every dish I make, unless someone is totally adverse to the idea or allergic. Then, I will just make them a separate dish. My youngest brother doesn’t like onions, so I don’t tell him – I had used my box grater & you couldn’t see them, mostly onion juice, Guess what? He always loves it! Lol. My boyfriend & my sis-in-law knew there were onions, but didn’t say a word, just smiled ear-to-ear, like we had a secret. We would look at each other and giggle. Again, thank you so very much for sharing your recipe! 😊 I look forward to making more of your recipes! God bless you sister-girl!

    Just stopping by to say this is one of my favorite recipes. I made it first in 2015 but it remains my favorite into 2019. I’ve tried many versions of it, but following the recipe exactly is the best result. I’ve never been a huge fan of thighs so the first couple times I just used chicken breasts and a couple times I’ve used tenderloins (don’t recommend). The last few times the thighs have surprised me (plus they are cheaper at the store!). I used this to impress my friends in college and now I use it to impress my adult friends. It’s my go to.

    Loved the flavors and the ease of prep, but that said, saying it only needs 5 minutes of prep is very misleading. Just opening up a package of bacon, chopping it up, sautéing it, and washing the cutting board took 15 minutes! Throw in the time it takes to slice the mushrooms, garlic, parsley and an onion? And then sautéing each of those things one at a time? Prep for getting this dish ready for simmering should realistically state more like 30- 45 minutes prep, 40 minutes to simmer. Great recipe, though, will make again for sure!

      I am glad you loved the recipe. Regarding the prep time…I don’t actually consider sauteeing as “prep time”, that is cooking, so the time for it is accounted for in the recipe instructions. The same goes for washing a cutting board, it’s something I do while things are cooking. The only prep time would be chopping one onion and slicing mushrooms and garlic. I believe 5 minutes is fair but I am fast.

    Forgive me if this is basic cooking 101, but I’m a rookie! Would this be a good choice to feed a crowd of 16 in terms of logistics? I can’t imagine it all fitting in one pan to make enough, so should I just do multiple pans using multiple burners? If so, how do I ensure proper proportions in each pan? I do have a large turkey roasting pan (that I’ve never used🤣) but I could use that if you think it’s best!

      August 2, 2018 at 1:32 pm

      Hi Nicole, yes using multiple pans would be your only solution if cooking for 16 people. Are you thinking of using the roasting pan on a stove top? It might not be the best way to brown the chicken though. You can move the bar next to Serving in the recipe card, and it will automatically adjust the recipe ingredients for 16 people. Then I would just divide the chicken evenly among the pans and cook according the instructions. I would also make sure you have help if you are a rookie. 🙂 Cooking for 16 is not easy!

      Hi Nicole, FYI ~ a few comments below yours ~ sounds like a successful dinner party for 10 couples. Have you already had your dinner party for 16? How did it go? If not, good luck, and I would be interested in hearing how it went. Did everyone love the meal? I always measure a successful dinner party, (or any event that includes cooking 😊) by the number of people who request the recipe.

    This is really excellent!! I made this for a dinner party of 10 couples. I wanted something easy……but impressive. This was it. It was perfect. My husband grilled some boneless chicken breast, that I cut into thin strips so it would cook quickly.
    What I really love about this dish is…..you can throw everything into the pan and let it be simmering on the stove while your guests arrive, graze on appetizers, eat the salad,and sip wine before the main course. Please make this if you want to enjoy the evening and reLax with friends.

      Hi Monique, I just looked at the recipe again and I am sure you can adapt it to a slow cooker but you would still have to brown chicken, mushrooms and onions beforehand (Steps 1-4 in the recipe card) because that is where the flavour comes from, and then assemble the rest of the ingredients in a slow cooker and cook on high for 4 hours. The thing is that you wouldn’t be saving much time because the main hands-on work is in those first steps, afterwards it’s just simmering for a few minutes but if you try it please let me know how it turns out! Good luck! 🙂

    Made this last night, I’m not sure i browned the chicken quite long enough, didn’t quite get the crispy skin. The flavor was delicious. My sauce was not thick, though. What do you think made the sauce not creamy? I used one cup heavy whipping cream, should i have used two?

      Kelly, the first time I made this recipe I didn’t brown the chicken to my liking, it looked rather pale so I just returned it to the pan and did a bit more browning, no big deal. The sauce gets thicker the longer you simmer it, so next time just cook it 5 minutes longer or until it is the consistency you like.

    This should be great. I’ve got a magnum (1.5 litre) of high quality chardy (retail US$75) which I expect is now well past its prime (nearly twenty years old!). If it’s survived, great. If it’s faded badly but not complete vinegar, it won’t be a complete waste, all the more of it will go in the “amazing sauce”!

    I made this tonight. It was WONDERFUL! I actually used a whole chicken (cheaper than buying parts) that I cut French style into eight pieces – two legs, two thighs, and four breast pieces (I removed the wings to use for stock). I also removed the chicken to a non-paper lined plate after browning so I could add the accumulated juices back to the sauce. In addition I added the wine to the pan to deglaze and scrape up any browned bits from the pan before adding everything else back in. What I love about this recipe is that once you get it started, the work is done and you can socialize with your guests instead of being stuck in the kitchen.

The only thing I found is that if the food sits for a couple hours a lot of the sauce gets absorbed so next time I would make more of it especially because I made it with rice and it soaks it up even more when plated. The flavours are just perfect though! Thank you for this delicious recipe 🙂

      Jo, you can definitely use brown button mushrooms, which I believe, is just another name for cremini mushrooms. I am afraid I am not familiar with cooking cream or emborg brand. Whipping cream or double cream is very thick cream with high fat content.

This was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten!! The family loved it. I agree with the poster above who called this sauce life-changing.

      Maria, you can always use chicken stock instead of cream and thicken it with flour or cornstarch. If you look at the recipe again there is a link in it to Coq au Vin, which is made with red wine and no cream. You can use that recipe but with Chardonnay.

    This looks so delicious! Just to clarify, when you say to brown the chicken in step #2, you just mean to sear it and the rest of it will cook in the 40 minutes. Or do I cook the chicken completely in step #2 and then continue with the 40 minutes to allow the sauce to flavor it up?

      Whitney, you are correct, just to brown it in step #2 and it will finish cooking completely by the time the rice is done. The whole process only takes 20 minutes, not 40 though. 🙂

          LOL, So sorry Whitney, I was commenting on my Fried Rice recipe! Yes, 40 minutes for this one and only brown chicken at first! NO RICE! 🙂

    We dont have legs or thighs. … could I use breasts? Also only have white cooking wine would that work? Or should I run to store? I know it’d probably taste different but thought it may be ok.

    Hello. I’m always confused as to what kind of onion to buy as there are white, yellow, etc. Can you kindly tell me which to purchase for this dish? Thank you so much! Cheers!

      I know many recipes will specify what kind of onion to get but to me it’s a matter of preference. I love red onions as I find them less bitter and that’s what I used here, Eowyn. That being said, if you use a regular white onion it will taste just as good. 🙂
