Instructions

  • Heat oil in a large dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown chicken well on each side; remove and set aside.
  • Saute the celery and garlic in the same pan for about 3 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute.
  • Gradually add the wine, stirring constantly so no lumps form. Add the stock, pepper, thyme and baby carrots; stir. Place the chicken back in the pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and cook for 20 minutes.
  • Taste the pan juices and add any salt to taste. Add the pearl onions and mushrooms. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes.
