Preparation

Cut the chicken into pieces, wash and pat it dry. Peel the shallots and slice them; cut into small cubes the bacon.
In a non-stick pan heat a tablespoon of oil and 5 grams of butter, add the shallots and let them simmer over moderate heat for a few minutes; add the bacon and cook for another two minutes. Remove from the pan shallots and bacon and set aside. In the same pan, melt the remaining butter and oil, add the chicken pieces, sprinkle with thyme, rosemary and garlic, salt, pepper and fry the chicken for 8-10 minutes over moderate heat, turning the pieces occasionally. Add chicken shallots and bacon, paprika and bay leaves, stir the ingredients and add the beer.
Cover the pan with the lid, leaving a small vent, lower the heat and continue cooking for about 30 minutes, turning the chicken pieces occasionally.
When the chicken is cooked and the gravy syrupy, remove from heat and serve immediately. Serve the chicken with baked potatoes.
