January: Chicken with Dark Beer

Similar to southern France's coq au vin, this nothern French recipe simmers chicken in deeply flavored beer for tenderness and nice caramel flavor. Add in juniper berries and a little bit of gin for their fresh taste, plus the creamy texture of yogurt stirred in at the end and you've got a recipe for a great cold-weather meal.
