CHICKEN WITH WILD MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
• Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and sprinkle both sides liberally with salt and pepper. Place 1/2 cup flour in a bowl and dredge the chicken in the flour. In a large (12-inch) ovenproof pot such as Le Creuset, heat the oil. Add the chicken in three batches (don't crowd them!) and brown lightly over medium-high heat for 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Remove the chicken to a plate and continue until all the chicken is browned.
• Add the whole garlic cloves, mushrooms, and thyme to the pot and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the sherry and cook for 1 minute, scraping up the brown bits. Add the minced garlic and cook for 2 more minutes. Add the wine, chicken stock, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper and bring to a simmer. Add the chicken (large pieces first), cover, and place in the middle of the oven for 30 to 35 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through (about 165 degrees on an instant-read thermometer).
• Remove the chicken to a bowl and discard the thyme. With a fork, mash together the butter and 1/4 cup flour and add it to the sauce. Simmer, stirring constantly, over medium heat for 5 minutes, until slightly thickened. Season to taste (it should be highly seasoned), put the chicken back in the sauce, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Make the batter: Put flour and salt in medium mixing bowl. Whisk in eggs and milk and beat until smooth. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (overnight if you wish). Thin with a little more milk if necessary; mixture should have the consistency of heavy cream.
• Put an 8-inch skillet or crepe pan over medium high heat. Brush lightly with melted butter, then pour in a scant 1/4 cup batter. Tilt pan and swirl batter so it fills pan to maximum circumference. Fry pancake on one side only until lightly browned. Lay pancakes browned side down on a plate, stacking pancakes as you go. Continue until all batter is used. Pancakes can be made ahead and kept wrapped in refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Make the filling: Heat oven to 400 degrees. Season chicken inside and out with salt and pepper. Put thyme bunch in cavity. Place on a rack in a roasting pan and roast breast side down for about 1 hour, until juices run clear at thickest part of thigh when pierced with skewer. Let cool, then tear meat from carcass in large chunks. Remove skin and bones (you can reserve for making broth). Chop meat in rough 1/2-inch cubes. Set aside.
• Put oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add chanterelles and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 2 minutes until lightly colored. Add garlic and chopped thyme leaves, stir and cook 1 minute more. Remove chanterelles from pan with a slotted spoon. Add black mushrooms to pan and season lightly with salt. Lower heat and cook gently for 2 minutes. Mix half the black mushrooms with all of the chanterelles; cut remaining black mushrooms into strips and reserve for garnish.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in wide skillet. Add onion and cook over medium high heat, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add leeks, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, for another 2 minutes. Add chicken and mushroom mixture and stir to combine. Sprinkle with flour and stir again. Add broth and wine and let simmer for 2 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning, then let cool completely and refrigerate for 1 hour or up to 1 day ahead.
• Assemble blintzes: Lay pancakes browned side up on a board. Fill each pancake with about 3 tablespoons chicken mixture. Fold pancake around filling to make a rectangular package. Place packages seam side down on a baking sheet. Packages can be covered and refrigerated for up to 1 day.
• In a wide skillet over medium heat, working in batches, gently fry blintzes on both sides with remaining 2 tablespoons butter for 2 minutes on each side, until crisp and golden. (You may need to add a bit more butter as you go.) Keep fried blintzes warm in a low oven. Serve 2 or 3 blintzes per person on warmed plates. Dab each blintz with a spoonful of crème fraîche and sprinkle with chives. Garnish with reserved black mushrooms, warmed through.

SILKY BRAISED CHICKEN WITH WILD MUSHROOMS AND PEARL ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 300 degrees. Sprinkle chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Spread a third of the onion slices and all the garlic in the bottom of a 7-quart ovenproof casserole or Dutch oven. Scatter 5 sprigs thyme, 1 bay leaf, and 1 rosemary sprig over the onion layer. Lay half the chicken pieces on top of the herb layer. Repeat with another third of the onion slices, the same amounts of each of the herbs as before, and the remaining chicken pieces; finish with a layer of all the remaining onion slices. Pour Riesling and chicken stock over onions and chicken. Cover casserole, and place in the oven to cook until chicken is tender, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
• Remove chicken pieces from casserole, and let sit until cool enough to handle. Remove skin from chicken; cut each breast piece in half. Spread each chicken piece with 1/2 teaspoon mustard, season with salt and pepper, and top with sprigs of thyme. Set aside. With a ladle, remove about 1 cup of the chicken cooking liquid from casserole, straining it into a shallow bowl or fat separator; set aside to separate.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add pearl onions, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, shaking skillet often, until mushrooms soften and turn golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add mushrooms, and season again with salt and pepper. Cook, shaking skillet often, until mushrooms soften and release their juice, 3 to 5 minutes. Cook until juice has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons Madeira to skillet, and cook until evaporated, about 1 minute. Transfer mixture to a bowl, and set aside.
• Return skillet to medium heat. Arrange 5 bacon strips in a single layer in skillet. Cook until bacon renders most of its fat and is golden brown. Place a piece of chicken on each piece of bacon and, using tongs, wrap chicken in bacon in a more or less haphazard way. Do not worry if chicken unwraps; it can be easily rewrapped before serving. Remove chicken from skillet, place on a platter, and cover with foil to keep warm. Drain fat from skillet. Repeat with remaining bacon and chicken.
