- Ingredients
- 4 Chicken legs
- 2 Tbsps olive oil
- 4 sprigs thyme (leaves picked from 2 sprigs)
- 6 shallots
- 2 cloves garlic cloves
- 4 ½ cups mixed Wild mushroom (e. g. chanterelles, button mushrooms, chestnut mushrooms, chopped if desired)
- ⅔ cup dry white wine
- ⅞ cup poultry stock (or vegetable stock)
- 1 Tbsp cold butter
Preparation steps
1.
Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C in a fan oven), 400°F, gas 6.
2.
Season the chicken legs with salt and ground black pepper. Heat the oil in a large roasting tin and briefly fry the chicken legs. Add the two whole sprigs of thyme, the shallots, garlic and mushrooms, and pour over the wine and stock. Cover and cook in the oven for 25-30 minutes.
3.
Remove the roasting tin from the oven. Season the braising liquid to taste with salt and ground black pepper, and refine with cold butter. Arrange on a serving plate or in bowls and serve garnished with thyme, and with fresh ciabatta if desired.
