Expert Tips

If you like dark meat use chicken thighs or a combination of thighs and breasts.

Make this recipe gluten free by skipping the flour step. Just salt, pepper the chicken and place it in the Dutch oven to cook.

Excellent. A hint I stole from a resturant, rather than cook in a dutch oven, pour sauce into a baking pan, put your chicken down in the sauce wh the skin sticking out. Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes. The result will be the same except the chicken will still have a nice crisp skin rather than the rubber you get in the dutch oven. I know it's a little untraditional, but trust me it comes out great.

I tried this recipe last evening for my daughter's birthday (8 guests). Instructions were a breeze to follow, and the resulting serving displays gorgeously on the plate (I served it on a bed of mashed potatoes with a side of fresh, blanched buttery green beans). Guests were impressed! This recipe is so easy, it could be made as a weekday meal as well.
