Mary Berry served up a heart warming and comforting chicken with red wine and garlic casserole dish on Mary Berry’s Foolproof Cooking.

Mary says: “My version of coq au vin, this is just the dish for serving on a cold day.”

The ingredients are: 400g baby shallots, peeled, 3 garlic cloves, crushed, 1 small bunch fresh thyme, 4 bay leaves, 600ml red wine, 6 small skinless and boneless chicken breasts, 2 tbsp olive oil, 75g butter, 3 tbsp plain flour, 350g smoked streaky bacon, chopped into pieces, 1 tbsp tomato purée, 1 tbsp light muscovado sugar, 400g button mushrooms, halved and salt and freshly ground black pepper.
