1. The day before cooking the dish: Quarter the chicken, leaving the breasts on
the bone. Separate each leg into thigh and drumstick portions, and cut each
breast in half.
2. Add the chicken to a shallow container large enough to accommodate all
of the pieces in a single layer. Pour the wine over the chicken and add the
thyme and sliced garlic.
3. Cover and marinate in refrigerator overnight.
4. Cook the bacon in a sauté pan until crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted
spoon to a plate lined with paper towels, leaving all of the rendered fat in
the pan.
5. Add the mushrooms to the pan and sauté until lightly golden brown. Toss
the onions into the mushrooms and continue to sauté until they are well
caramelized.
6. Reduce the heat to low and melt in the butter and then incorporate the
flour. Continue to cook for 5 minutes, then season with salt and pepper and
remove from the heat.
7. Remove the chicken from the marinade, season with salt and pepper, and
dust the skin sides lightly with flour.
