🥘 Ingredients

10 items

• 4 pieces chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 12 pieces garlic cloves (peeled and whole)
• 0.5 cups dry white wine
• 0.5 cups chicken stock

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. Season the chicken thighs generously with kosher salt and black pepper on both sides.

2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

3. Add the chicken thighs skin-side down and sear for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

4. Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet.

5. Add the whole garlic cloves and sauté for 3-4 minutes until golden and aromatic.

6. Deglaze the pan with the dry white wine, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.

7. Stir in the chicken stock, chopped roma tomatoes, and herbes de Provence. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

8. Return the chicken thighs to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Cover the pan and cook on low heat for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.

9. Serve the chicken warm, garnished with fresh thyme sprigs if desired. Enjoy with crusty bread or a side of roasted vegetables.
