Method

Step 1 of 4

Preheat oven to 180°C. Lightly coat chicken pieces with flour and place onto a large plate. Heat half the oil in a large deep heat-proof casserole dish over medium heat. Add 3-4 pieces of chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes or until golden on all sides. Transfer to a plate. Cook remaining pieces of chicken, adding more oil if required.

Step 2 of 4

Add butter to casserole. When melted, add mushrooms and cook for 8 minutes, or until golden. Add leeks and cook for 8 minutes, stirring often until soft but not coloured. Pour over wine and stock and bring to the boil.

Step 3 of 4

Return chicken pieces to casserole with bay leaves. Bring to the boil. Cover, place into oven and cook for 1 1/4 hours.

Step 4 of 4

Remove lid and cook for a further 30 minutes or until chicken is falling off the bones. Serve sprinkled with parsley and freshly ground black pepper.
