Can a fussy French fricassee fit a modern American lifestyle? Sure. All it takes is a chicken, a couple bottles of wine and a little know-how. The fussy French part is purely optional. Recipes featured in this episode: Coq au Vin.moreless

So maybe I am not the best cook in the world. But I have to say that I get my fair share of A+ reviews from family and friends. I am also not at all an expert on French Foods. Having said that... I have to tell you that if you want to spend a lot of time and effort on a recipe... don't do this one. My husband was away overnight for business, I thought I would surprise him with a wonderful dinner. I went to the store and got EVERYTHING this recipe calls for, I spent a lot of time doing EVERYHTING just like the show told me to. However this isn't a taste for everyone. You may like this... but me and my family did not! Altons show is GREAT! I LOVE IT! But this recipe gets a thumbs down from me.moreless

- Cuckoo for Coq Au Vin The title alludes to the advertising campaign for the General Mills breakfast cereal Cocoa Puffs. Sonny the cuckoo bird always said, "I'm cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs!" at the end of every commercial.
