Slow Cooker Coq Au Vin image

This is a recipe attributed to Reese Witherspoon that was printed in the December 2008 issue of Good Housekeeping. There's another recipe of hers on 'Zaar that was apparently from Ellen Degeneres' website but for some reason this one is slightly different. I'm posting it here so I won't misplace it.

This was my first time making coq au vin and it turned out amazing! The chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was rich and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a fan of red wine, so I used white wine instead. The dish turned out great! The chicken was tender and the sauce was flavorful.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt or omitting it altogether.

This recipe is not worth your time. The chicken was dry and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend it.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I like to add some vegetables to the pot, such as carrots, celery, and onions.

This recipe was a disappointment. The chicken was tough and the sauce was watery. I won't be making this again.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The only thing I do differently is add a bit of Dijon mustard to the sauce. It gives it a nice tang.

This coq au vin recipe was a hit with my family! The chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was rich and flavorful. I served it over mashed potatoes and everyone loved it.
