Method

Step 1 of 4

Dice bacon, onion and garlic. Heat half the oil and half the butter in a casserole pan over medium heat. Add bacon, onion and garlic. Cook, stirring until soft and golden. Transfer to a plate.

Step 2 of 4

Add chicken and flour to bowl. Season and toss to coat. Turn the heat up to high. Melt remaining butter and oil in the same casserole pan. Add the chicken. Cook, turning, until browned. Stir in tomato paste and red wine. Bring to boil, stirring. Add bacon mixture back to the pan with stock, carrots, mushrooms, thyme and bay leaves. Simmer, covered for about 25-30 minutes or until chicken and carrots are tender.

Step 3 of 4

Meanwhile cook potatoes in a large saucepan of boiling salted water until tender. Drain.

Step 4 of 4

Serve scattered with parsley and potatoes to the side. Tip 1: You can omit tomato paste and substitute white wine instead of red wine in this recipe. Tip 2: This dish can be made with a whole chicken cut into 8 joints.
