  • Poulet au vinaigre, or chicken with vinegar, is one of those rustic French preparations for chicken thighs, that is both a pleasure to make, and delicious to eat. The tarragon, shallot, and wine pan sauce is rich, but not too rich, and perfectly balanced by the subtle tanginess of the vinegar. Enjoy!

      My story is similar only I didn't become a chef... instead I became someone who can't afford to eat at restaurants that cook better than I do. Chef John really is an all-time culinary great... he belongs on the Mt. Rushmore of food with Escoffier and Julia Child and Anthony Bourdain for me. His impact is profound... and what a database of can't-miss recipes.

      I made every night that weekend, including the night I wrote that. It tasted a little better each time. I feel it went best when I eased off on the tomato paste and the chicken stock (this can make it saltier if you let it thicken too much). Fresh tarragon is absolutely essential and you don't need much to get it's benefit taste-wise in this dish.

    Such a good dish that the French even made a film called "Poulet au Vinaigre" back in 1985. (Although it's partly a pun as Poulet is French slang for a cop). I love that piquant sauce over chicken, pairing it with pommes purées & that best of French sides; petits pois à la Française, is real comfort food.

    This is one of those great universal recipes, or more accurate techniques, that can be done with a wide variety of ingredients. One variation I like to do is to remove the skin and render it completely in the oven, creating a chicken skin bacon! Then serve that on top of the dish, jullienne them if you want to get fancy.
