      Put the chicken, vegetables and herbs in a bowl, cover with the wine and marinate in the fridge 12 hours.

    2. 2

      Lift out the chicken and pat dry. Strain the wine, keeping the vegetables.

    3. 3

    4. 4

      Brown the marinated vegetables, add the wine and bring to a boil, scraping the pot. Add the stock, chicken and bacon, cover and braise at 160°C (325°F) for 1.5 hours until very tender.

    5. 5

      Meanwhile brown the mushrooms and pearl onions in a pan.
