chicken cooked in wine

fry some bacon and onion and garlic, place in a big old metal pan with a lid. coat some chicken pieces in flour lightly seasoned with salt and pepper and gently fry them. before they have finished cooking place them in the pre-warmed metal pan with the bacon and onions and garlic. cover with half a cup of brandy and ignite. after a minuet or so add half a bottle of red wine and cook it in the oven for an hour. Then add mushrooms and some bouquet-garnie (sp ?) (celery, thyme and bay-leaves in a little sack) and cook for another hour.

Fantastic !
