COQ AU GEWURZTRAMINER



Coq Au Gewurztraminer image

i found this recipe in a local singapore magazine. Instead of using red wine like the traditional Coq Au Vin, this one uses a slightly sweet German white wine. It's comfort food at its best - tender, juicy chicken braised in sweet creamy sauce. It's as aromatic as it is delicious. The pancetta gives the dish a slightly smoky taste. Impressive and easy too!

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
50 g butter
100 g pancetta, diced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 medium onions, chopped
200 g button mushrooms, quartered
2 carrots, diced
3 tablespoons parsley, chopped
4 chicken thighs
300 ml double cream or 300 ml thickened cream
500 ml Gewurztraminer wine or 500 ml riesling wine
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Melt butter and oil together in a heavy saucepan or pot.
  • Brown the pancetta a little, then add carrots, onions and garlic.
  • Leave to cook over moderate heat until onions have softened but not colored.
  • Scoop out onions, pancetta and carrots with slotted spoon, set aside.
  • Brown thighs in the pan.
  • Put the onions, pancetta and carrots back into pan.
  • Turn up the heat and pour in the wine.
  • Quickly bring the mixture to boil, then turn down heat to a simmer.
  • Let everything cook at a gentle simmer for 25mins, turning chicken from time to time.
  • Lift chicken out of the pan, and place into a bowl/plate.
  • Cover to keep warm.
  • Pour the cream into pan.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Stir in the fresh parsley.
  • Add the mushrooms.
  • Let sauce thicken while the mushrooms cook.
  • (You want the sauce to reduce substantially so that the liquid is a nice, thick, delicious gravy.) When ready, put the chicken back into the pan and heat through again before serving.

  • Alsatian food. Just as Alsatian terroir is ideal for Gewürztraminer wine, so too is Alsatian cuisine. Try a sweet and nutty Muenster cheese, a slice of French bacon and Gruyère tarte flambée, or a Quiche Lorraine as an Alsace Gewürztraminer food pairing.
  • Cheese. Wine and cheese are one of the most famous food pairings of all time, and of course, there are perfect cheese pairings to be found for Gewürztraminer.
  • Duck. Gewürztraminer works wonderfully with many white slices of meat, but our favorite meat pairing is duck. With its floral aroma and crisp acidity, Gewürztraminer contrasts beautifully against this delicious fatty white meat.
  • Fish. Raw, grilled, or smoked – fish is a great Gewürztraminer pairing. Oily fish with strong flavors or sauces with a fruity or mustardy touch go beautifully with this aromatic wine.
  • Truffles. Here is a surprising and delightful Gewürztraminer pairing! If your Gewürztraminer wine has earth undertones like hydrocarbon or kerosene, it will be the perfect match for the equally aromatic truffle.
