Eventhough this recipe is a simplification of the traditional Coq au Vin, it is still a quite an expensive dish to make with a lot of different ingredients. This meal must be very rich, as the chicken is flavored by bacon, wine and mushrooms among other things. The price is mainly brought high by the chicken (however the thighs provide a very affordable solution), the pearl onions and the wine. Pearl onions can be difficult to find, and there isn't really any good substitutions, however red or white onion could do in a pinch. (If you can't find any frozen pearl onions, try looking in the pickled section of your grocery store). |
