New Coq au Vin

This modern iteration of the French classic, Coq au Vin Blanc, swaps heavy red wine and lardons for a lighter, fragrant white wine and garlic base. Using bone-in chicken thighs ensures the meat remains succulent and tender, while the skin is seared to a crisp, golden finish. It is a sophisticated yet simple high-protein dish that delivers a deep, savoury flavour profile without the traditional richness of a long-simmered stew.

Perfect for a nutritious midweek meal or an easy weekend dinner, this recipe focuses on fresh ingredients like flat-leaf parsley and crisp celery. Serving the chicken alongside smooth, olive-oil mashed potatoes allows the delicate wine sauce to be fully appreciated. It is an excellent choice for those seeking a heart-healthy, protein-rich dinner that feels like a treat.

Ingredients for New Coq au Vin

  • 6 chicken thighs with skin and bone

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 10 garlic cloves, halved

  • 3 celery ribs, cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces

  • 240ml dry white wine

  • 1 cup water

How to make New Coq au Vin

Pat chicken dry and season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Sear chicken, skin side down, in 2 batches until golden brown (do not turn), 3 to 5 minutes, then transfer to a plate.

Pour off all but 2 tablespoons fat from skillet. Cook garlic and celery in skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden and just beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Add wine and boil, uncovered, until reduced by about half, 3 to 5 minutes. Add water and bring to a simmer.

Return chicken, skin side up, to skillet and simmer, partially covered, until cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley.
