Ingredients

• 1 large piece sliced onion
• 4 cloves minced garlic
• 2 stalks chopped celery
• 3 to 4 pounds bone-in, cuts in serving pieces chicken
• 1/4 cup white wine
• 1 cup organic chicken broth
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup organic Alfredo sauce bottled
• 1 cup button mushrooms canned or fresh
• 3 large pieces peeled, quartered potatoes
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper powder
• 1/4 cup chopped for garnish fresh flat parsley
• 1 pound for serving cooked Dutch egg noodles

Instructions

• Pre-heat oven to 375 F.
• In a large glass or metal roasting pan, measuring about 15 x 10 inches, arrange the ingredients and chicken in this order: First arrange the onions, garlic and celery at the bottom. Then add the chicken pieces in a single layer, making sure the meat pieces do not overlap.
• Pour the white wine and chicken broth over the chicken pieces.
• Separately, in a medium-sized bowl, combine the sour cream, heavy cream and bottled Alfredo sauce till blended. Pour these cream sauces over the chicken in the roasting pan.
• Add the potatoes and mushrooms to the chicken and rest of the ingredients. Season with salt and black pepper all over.
• Cover the entire roasting pan with foil. Bake at 375 F for two hours (for this amount of meat with bone) till chicken is completely cooked. Remove from the oven. Stir the chicken, ingredients and sauce for the seasonings to evenly distribute.
• Garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve warm with a platter of cooked Dutch egg noodles.
• To cook in a Slow Cooker: Combine all the ingredients (except for the parsley and egg noodles) in a slow cooker. Cook on HIGH setting for 6 to 8 hours.
• To cook in an Instant Pot Pressure Cooker: Combine all the ingredients (except the parsley and egg noodles) in an Instant Pot pressure cooker. Set at HIGH Pressure, choose 'poultry' setting, cook for 45 minutes. For safety precautions, be sure to follow the appliance manual instructions for proper release of the pressure valve.
• Cook's Comments: If you want to cut cooking time in half,  use boneless chicken thighs for this recipe (same amount).
• Ingredient notes:   I prefer to use white wine for this recipe so the dish remains consistently cream-colored and the wine flavor and aroma stays mild. I have tried cooking this recipe with red wine and noticed the flavors get bolder which clashes with the cream. Also, the cream sauce takes on a reddish hue.
