Servings: 4

2–3 medium-sized carrots
200 g Shallots
2 Garlic cloves
400–500 g Herb sideapple or brown mushrooms
1 collar Spring onions
2 stem(s) Thyme
1 Branch rosemary
2 stem(s) Parsley
1–2 Bay leaves
50 g streaky smoked bacon
1 (approx. 1.6 kg) ready-to-roast chicken
7-10 Tbsp Salt
7-10 Tbsp Pepper
4 TABLESPOONS Oil
1 heaped tbsp. flour
200 ml dry white wine
400-500 ml Chicken stock or chicken broth (glass)

Directions

1
Peel or clean carrots, shallots, garlic, mushrooms and spring onions. Wash carrots, mushrooms and spring onions. Cut carrots and garlic into slices and spring onions into pieces. Halve or quarter mushrooms and shallots depending on size.
2
Wash the herbs, shake them dry and tie them with bay leaves to form a bouquet (bouquet garni). Finely dice the bacon.
3
Wash chickens well inside and outside, dab dry and cut into 10 pieces (see photos below). Season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a frying pan. Brown the chicken parts in it all around.
4
Fry the bacon vigorously in the frying fat. Fry shallots and carrots briefly. Dust with flour and sweat them on. Stir in wine and chicken stock, bring to the boil. Place chicken and herbs in the sauce, cover and braise in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/circulating air: 175 °C/gas: level 3) for approx. 1 1⁄2 hours.
5
Fry the mushrooms and spring onions briefly in 2 tbsp. hot oil while turning. After about 1 1⁄4 hours add to the chicken and cook. Season everything again with salt and pepper. Boiled potatoes taste good with it.
