Notice in the film that Julia didn’t brown the chicken much. There’s an America’s Test Kitchen article and recipe for Chicken on Cocotte out there, too, that deals with technique.

I just put this chicken in the oven. I couldnt get it as brown as I wanted either. I was concerned about the intense heat further burning the bacon bits on the bottom my of le creuset and setting off the smoke detector. I figured I dont eat the skin anyway. I just wont harp on the lack of presentation and concentrate on the fact that this should be one delicious chicken. I am so grateful for the movie highlighting julia. Her cooking methods are perfect for me. She is my kind of teacher! My cooking has improved 400% since reading her books.
Now I am going to peruse your blog. I love finding new ideas.

Tons of bacon = good! It looks great! I’ll have to invest in Julia’s cookbook. I bet they’re well worth it.
