I received this recipe from a trained chef that I worked with in college. I was in the kitchen the night he prepared it for a fancy Valentine's Day banquet for students. The sauce is savory and especially good made with pink champagne. Served with wild rice pilaf and roasted vegetables it is a perfect recipe for special guests or a romantic evening in.

This is an easy recipe that tastes great and sounds a little fancy. Our whole family gives this one a "thumbs up". I had Champagne Chicken at a restaurant and had tried to re-create it at home (with champagne, artichokes and grapes) - but I revised it so my little ones would eat it. Enjoy!

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons olive oil
10 to 12 large bone-in chicken thighs (about 5 pounds)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
40 cloves garlic, peeled (3 whole heads)
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, or to taste
1 cup Champagne or other dry sparkling or white wine
2 cups Emeril's Rich Chicken Stock or store-bought low-sodium chicken broth
6 sprigs fresh thyme
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Heat a large, heavy-bottomed Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When hot, add the oil. Season the chicken on both sides with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Working in batches so as to not crowd the pot, sear the chicken, skin side down, until golden brown, about 6 minutes per batch. Brown briefly on the second side, then transfer the browned chicken to a plate.
  • Add the garlic to the pot and cook, stirring, until lightly golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the lemon juice, Champagne, broth, and thyme, and return the chicken to the pot, nestling the pieces down into the liquid. Make sure some of the garlic is sitting on top of the chicken. Bring the liquid to a boil, cover the pot, and place in the oven. Cook, stirring once midway to ensure even cooking, until the chicken is falling-off-the-bone tender, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
  • Transfer the chicken and some of the garlic to a platter, and cover to keep warm. Remove and discard the thyme sprigs.
  • In a medium bowl, mash the flour and butter together to form a smooth paste. Slowly whisk 1/2 cup of the hot juices from the pot into the paste until smooth, then add this mixture to the pot along with 2 tablespoons of the parsley, and whisk to combine. Don't worry if some of the garlic cloves get smashed -- they will help to thicken and enrich the sauce. Cover and cook over medium heat until the gravy has thickened, 10 to 20 minutes longer. Season the sauce with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, or more to taste. Serve the chicken with the gravy spooned over the top and sprinkled with the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley.

Tips:

  • Choose the right size casserole dish: The size of your casserole dish will depend on the amount of food you are making. A 9x13-inch dish is a good size for most casseroles.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your casserole the best flavor. If you can, try to use organic ingredients.
  • Don't overcook your casserole: Casseroles are best when they are cooked just until the center is heated through. Overcooking will make the casserole dry and tough.
  • Let your casserole rest before serving: Letting your casserole rest for a few minutes before serving will help the flavors to meld together and the casserole to set.
  • Serve your casserole with a side salad or vegetables: A side salad or vegetables will help to round out the meal and make it more nutritious.

Conclusion:

Casseroles are a delicious and easy way to feed a crowd. They can be made with a variety of ingredients, so there is sure to be a casserole that everyone will enjoy. With a little planning and effort, you can make a delicious casserole that will be a hit at your next potluck or dinner party.
