Cup Flour; plus  
Tablespoon Flour  
Egg  
Tablespoon Milk  
2 Ounce Bacon; chopped  
Pint Pearl onions; peeled  
Pound Domestic cap mushrooms; thinly sliced  
/4 Cup Chopped shallots  
Tablespoon Chopped garlic  
Tablespoon Chopped fresh thyme  
Bay leaves  
Cup Fruity Riesling Wine  
Cup Brown chicken stock  
Tablespoon Butter  
Tablespoon Finely−chopped parsley  
Season the rabbit with salt and pepper. In a shallow pan, add 2 cups of the  
flour. Season with salt and pepper. In another shallow bowl, whisk the egg  
and milk together. Season with salt and pepper. Dredge the rabbit in the  
seasoned flour. Dip the rabbit in the egg wash, letting the excess drip off.  
Dredge the rabbit back in the seasoned flour, coating completely. In a large  
hot oven−proof skillet with a lid, render the bacon until crispy, about 6 to  
8
minutes. Remove the crispy bacon from the pan and reserve. Lay the rabbit,  
skin−side down in the hot bacon fat and brown the rabbit for 3 to 4 minutes  
on each side. Remove the rabbit from the pan and set aside. Add the onions  
to the bacon fat and saute for 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms, shallots, and  
garlic. Saute for 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the thyme and  
bay leaves. Add the rabbit to the vegetable mixture. Add the wine and  
chicken stock. Bring the liquid up to a simmer and cover. Cook the rabbit  
until very tender about 30 to 35 minutes, skimming off the fat. Remove the  
rabbit pieces from the pan and set aside. Blend the remaining flour and  
butter together into a smooth paste (beurre mani ). Whisk the paste into hot  
liquid. Bring the liquid to a simmer and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the  
rabbit back to the pan and continue to cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the  
parsley. Season with salt and pepper if needed. Serve the Coq Au Vin in  
individual bowls with crusty bread. Garnish with the reserved crispy bacon.  
This recipe yields 4 servings.
