Add chopped onions, garlic, and carrots; sauté until softened.

Pour in the red wine and add thyme and bay leaves.

Return the bacon to the pot and add chicken broth; bring to a simmer.

Flambé with cognac and then cover and cook on low heat until the coq is tender.

Add mushrooms in the last 30 minutes of cooking, along with flour to thicken the sauce.

Adjust seasoning to taste before serving.
