Recipe Example (taken from
the book)
Drunken Rosemary Chicken
with Basmati Rice
MAKES: 4 to 6 servings
8 chicken thighs (2 3/4 to 3
lb. total)
Salt and fresh-ground pepper
6 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon coarsely chopped fresh rosemary leaves or dried
rosemary
1 cup Chardonnay or other dry white wine
1/2 cup fat-skimmed chicken broth
11/2 cups precooked dried white rice
1/4 cup chopped green onions (including tops)
Rosemary sprigs, rinsed
Rinse thighs and pat dry.
Pull off and discard skin; trim off and discard lumps of fat.
Sprinkle thighs lightly with salt and pepper. Place thighs in a
4 1/2-quart or larger electric slow-cooker.
Sprinkle with garlic and
chopped rosemary; pour wine and broth over chicken.
Cover and cook until meat pulls easily from the bone, about 5
hours on low, 3 hours on high.
Skim and discard fat from juices. Add rice and mix to moisten
evenly.
Turn cooker to high; cover
and cook, stirring several times, until rice is just tender to
bite, about 5 minutes.
Spoon chicken and rice onto a platter. Sprinkle with onions and
garnish with rosemary sprigs. Add salt and pepper to
taste.
