Today we bring you a delicious recipe for chicken cooked with a Le Creuset doufeu cocotte !

Ingredients

(for 4 people)

  • 4 free-range chicken legs or a whole chicken cut into pieces
  • 100g of dried blackberries
  • 1 French onion (èshalote)
  • 50cl of fresh cooking cream (crème fraîchte)
  • 50g of butter
  • 25cl of young wine
  • Salt / ground pepper
  • 500g of fresh tagliatelle

Preparation

  1. The evening before, marinate the chicken thighs with the wine. An hour before, leave the blackberries to soak in a bowl of cold water. Strain. Preheat the oven to 180ºC. Peel and finely chop the onion.
  2. Melt the butter over low heat in the Doufeu: put the cleaned chicken pieces. Add the chopped onion and fry. Cover the Doufeu, put some ice or cold water on the lid and place in the oven. Let cook for about an hour (time varies depending on the hardness of the chicken).
  3. Remove the Doufeu from the oven, add the wine, the blackberries and the fresh cream. Put the Doufeu back on the very low oven and let it reduce for a few minutes. Serve with the tagliatelle.
