Ok, yes we're talking Coq Au Vin here, but pleaz... In Hillbilly Land, it's Red Wine Chicken... It's quick to put together and easy on the budget...

One pack Chicken Thighs (skin on, remove after cooking if desired)
1/2 or so flour
salt/pepper your flour
1 onion, cut in chunks or diced (your preference)
12 mushroom caps, diced stems
1 1/2 cups red wine (something you'd drink, but I find $4 bottles with
corks in my store that work great! I prefer cabernet sauvignon...)

Heat a dutch oven or pan that is safe for use in the oven with 2 T. olive oil. As you shake each thigh in flour, place it skin down in the pan to brown. Repeat with all thighs, turn when you nose tells you it's time. Remove thighs from pan when all brown. Saute on onion and diced mushroom stems in an addition tablespoon of oil. Once softened, pure wine in hot pan slowly. Add thighs back to pan along with mushroom caps, put a lid or foil over the pan, and bake for 40 minutes in a 375 degree oven.

Serve over noodiles or cheat and add chunks of potatoes to the pot before baking for a complete meal. With mine, most of the wine had been absorbed. The chicken was amazingly tender-melt-in-your-mouth! Total cost of meal for 4 servings: about $4...
