Turkey Au Vin

We all know the famous dish Coq Au Vin. Coq Au Vin is a French chicken / rooster dish where chicken thighs are braised in red wine, vegetables and aromatics to make a rich chicken that falls off the bone. The meat is super moist, rich from the red wine, and saucy perfection. I decided to try this with turkey thighs, and was BLOWN away by how amazing it was. It really enhanced both the turkey and the traditional coq au vin dish. Turkey is a much richer meat, so it adds a depth of flavor that chicken cannot. It is also fattier, so it is more moist when it is cooked this way. I believe that this will convert any Turkey haters into lovers. If you can get your hands on turkey thighs, you have to try cooking them like this! This dish is great served with a potato dish to cut through the richness. I serve it with my burnished potatoes recipe. It is also perfect for Thanksgiving if you want to actually enjoy your turkey!
