Chicken & red wine casserole with herby dumplings image

A rich and warming red wine chicken casserole - ideal for when it's cold and dark outside.

Provided by Jo Pratt

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 19

6 part-boned chicken breasts or boned for slow cooker (see below)
3 tbsp plain flour
3 tbsp olive oil
3 onions, each peeled and cut into 8 wedges
200g smoked bacon lardons
3 garlic cloves, peeled and sliced
300g large flat mushroom, sliced
2 bay leaves
2 tbsp redcurrant sauce
3 strips of peeled orange zest
300ml red wine
300ml chicken stock
100g self-raising flour, plus extra for dusting
100g fresh white breadcrumbs
1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
140g butter, cubed
2 tsp fresh thyme leaves, plus extra to serve
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
2 egg, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to fan 180C/ conventional 200C/gas 6. Season the chicken with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then coat lightly in a little of the flour. Heat the oil in a large ovenproof lidded casserole dish and, in batches, brown the chicken on both sides over a high heat. Remove the chicken and set aside.
  • Reduce the heat, add the onions and lardons and cook for about 5-8 minutes so they are golden tinged. Add the garlic, then sprinkle in the plain flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring to prevent sticking.
  • Add the mushrooms, bay leaves, redcurrant sauce and orange zest, then pour in the red wine and stock and season with salt and pepper. Bring to the boil, then return the chicken to the casserole dish, making sure it is well covered with the liquid. Put on the lid and cook in the oven for 30 minutes.
  • While the casserole is cooking, prepare the dumplings. Put the self raising flour, breadcrumbs, mustard and butter in a food processor and blitz to a crumb consistency. Add the thyme, parsley, eggs and salt and pepper. Briefly blitz until the mixture forms a fairly moist dough. Using floured hands, roll the dough into 6 large, even-sized balls.
  • Remove the casserole from the oven when the 30 minutes is up and sit the dumplings on top. Pop the lid back on and return to the oven for a further 20 minutes, until the casserole is cooked and the dumplings have puffed up. Spoon the chicken and sauce onto six plates and top each with a dumpling. Serve with a rich, fruity red wine.
  • If you want to use a slow cooker, brown the chicken in batches and transfer to the slow cooker pot. Add the flour, onions, lardons, garlic, mushrooms, bay leaves, redcurrant, orange zest, red wine and stock, and season. Cover and cook on High for 4 hours. Make the dumplings according to step 4, then sit on top of the casserole after 4 hours. Cook for another 1-2 hours, then serve.

  • Brown the chicken: Browning the chicken before adding it to the slow cooker will help to develop its flavor and create a richer sauce.
  • Use a good quality red wine: The wine you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the dish, so choose a red wine that you enjoy drinking.
  • Add plenty of vegetables: Vegetables such as carrots, celery, onions, and garlic will add flavor and nutrition to the dish.
  • Season the dish well: Be generous with the salt and pepper, and don't be afraid to add other spices and herbs to your taste.
  • Cook the chicken on low: Cooking the chicken on low for 6-8 hours will allow the flavors to develop and the chicken to become fall-off-the-bone tender.

This slow cooker chicken in red wine is an easy and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is rich and flavorful. Serve it over rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes, and enjoy!
