Provincial Chicken

Originating from the south of France, this recipe is both comforting and delicious with tender, juicy pieces of chicken and vegetables using DARI’S Hearty Vegetable Soup.

Ingredients

1 x DARI’S Hearty Vegetable Soup

8 chicken drumsticks

1 tsp salt

Freshly ground black pepper

2 tbsp olive oil

20g butter

1 onion, diced

1 clove garlic, crushed

200g cup mushrooms, halved

½ cup white wine

½ cup pouring cream

3 tbsp chopped parsley

Method

  1. Place a strainer or colander over a large bowl. Pour DARI’S Hearty Vegetable Soup into the strainer to separate the ingredients from the stock. Set aside.
  2. Season chicken drumsticks with salt and pepper.
  3. Add oil to a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Sear chicken on all sides until lightly browned and skin starts to render. Remove from the frying pan and set aside.
  4. Reduce heat to medium. Add butter to the pan with onion and garlic. Cook, stirring for 3-4 minutes or until translucent.
  5. Add mushrooms to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  6. Add the reserved DARI’S Hearty Vegetable Soup ingredients to the pan. Stir to combine then return the chicken drumsticks to the pan.
  7. Reduce heat to low. Add the wine and DARI’S Hearty Vegetable Soup stock to the pan. Allow to simmer for 15 minutes, turning the chicken drumsticks occasionally.
  8. Add cream to the pan and season with additional salt and pepper. Simmer, uncovered for a further 10 minutes.
  9. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.
  10. Serve with a side of vegetables or bread of your choice.
