Having had dental surgery yesterday, this chicken is SO delicious and TENDER it's unbelieveable.  From a cookbook years ago, I renamed it off of a line from a show called the "Real McCoys" with Walter Brennen when I was a child.

You'll want rice, mashed potatoes, or something for the gravy.

You had me at "Drunk" @ECBG Most especially after reading your sentence regarding dental work so yes I would be in to partake of Drunk Chicken.

@beckyb1012 Did you ever see that absolutely darling show, the "Real McCoys" in the 50's?

It was about a farmer, Luke, his cute wife, Kate, their young son, and Luke's "grandpaw" "Grandpappy" played by Walter Brennen whom happened to walk with a limp and wore overalls.

Kate was doing a "new" chicken with wine for dinner.  Grandpappy had a fit and said "I ain't eatin' no chicken that has to get itself "liquored up" to come to the table!!!  His words always stayed with me, so I renamed the

recipe!

I was pretty young, but I remember The Real McCoys....I remember most of the theme song lol!  They had a hired hand named Pepino.  Don't know how I remember that... but can't remember where I put my keys!!!

When I spent the night with my Nanny.  It was before I started elementary so I do not have many memories but I did see it a couple of times.  I do remember clearly the Porter Wagoner show with Dolly Pardon selling towels in the laundry detergent boxes. Watched that at Nanny's every visit too.

@alicedee I remember the show tune, but can only remember "Grandpappy, Amos, and the girls and the boys, and the family known as the Real McCoys!".

It sounds good but is it salty

[ECBG]

Not to me.  The liquid is from the wine and the juices of the chicken.  Personally, I only salt eggs, tomato sandwiches, and baked potatoes.  I don't salt at the table at all, and this doesn't bother me.
