Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F

Wash chicken and pat dry. Season liberally with salt and pepper. Brown chicken on all sides in large sauté pan, set aside.

Layer onions and garlic in bottom of a large, covered baking dish (or one large enough to cover with foil), season well with salt and pepper, layer chicken thighs over the top. Add wine, pour tomatoes over chicken in a single strip down the center of the dish. (Just because it’s pretty.)

Bake covered on center rack of oven until onions have broken down nearly completely and chicken is cooked through. (about one hour in my oven and with a ceramic dish. It will take longer in a steel dish.)

Allow to rest, covered, for 10 minutes.

Season to taste and serve over pasta.
