Imagine taking a bath in a milky creamy mixture infused with thyme and garlic! Well that’s what we do to these potatoes. This traditional gratin come for the region of Dauphine, France and is simple to prepare and just so darn good! This dish is the perfect accompaniment to almost any roasted meat. The potatoes absorb all the creamy goodness and are irresistible to me. Honestly, I could eat the whole dish myself!

Translated literally it means “rooster in wine”.  This is a classic braised dish that uses a whole chicken but I prefer to use chicken thighs with are scrumptious and easier to serve. Traditionalists use a red Burgundy, but any full-bodied red wine will do. Served over mashed potatoes, this is true French “comfort food”!
