Braised in red wine with mushrooms, shallots and bacon, breast pieces are packed into a frozen-meal format for oven cooking. It's a classic French-style stew, with a dark sauce and tender chunks rather than a creamy finish. Compared with other meals in the range, this one leans more towards slow-cooked casserole than pasta or curry, and the ingredient list stays fairly simple. Red wine gives the sauce a deep, savoury richness, while the bacon adds smokiness and the mushrooms bring an earthy note. Shallots soften and sweeten as they cook down. Serve it with crusty bread or mashed potato.
