Baked Provencal Chicken
- 8-10 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (or 6 boneless-skinless breasts...but they're not as juicy/flavorful)
- 1/4 C. olive oil
- 12 pitted Cerignola (big green, NOT Spanish) olives
- 2 C. slivered sweet onion
- 10 cloves garlic (whole)
- 1/2 t. Thyme
- 1/2 t. Basil
- 1/2 t. Sage
- 1 t. salt
- good grind of black pepper
- Preheat oven to 350.
- coat the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish with 1 t. of the olive oil. Sprinkle 1/2 the onion in the dish. Top with the chicken. Sprinkle with the herbs, salt, and pepper. Top with the remaining onion, and dot with the garlic cloves and olives.
- Drizzle the rest of the olive oil over the top.
- Bake for 1 hour.
- Serve with a green salad and polenta with cheese, or boiled/roasted new potatoes.
- I also like the sop some of the garlicky-herby oil with crusty bread. Mmm.
