Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chicken skin-side down and sear for 3-5 minutes until golden brown. Flip to brown the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes, then set aside.
  3. Add sliced mushrooms, shallots, celery, and garlic to the pot. Sauté for about 7 minutes until softened and fragrant.
  4. Sprinkle flour over the vegetables, stir to coat, and cook for about 2 minutes.
  5. Pour in the white wine, scrape up any bits from the pot, and let it simmer for about 3 minutes.
  6. Add chicken stock, bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer uncovered for about 5 minutes.
  7. Nestle the halved baby potatoes and place the chicken on top. Roast for 40-45 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
  8. Remove the chicken and stir in the cream. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
