Calabrian-Style Chicken
- 8 boneless and skinless chicken thighs
- 6 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small red onion, diced
- 5-10 stems of parsley, leaves only, chopped
- 2 sprigs rosemary
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 3/4 cup white wine (or chicken stock)
- 2-3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 2 fresh or dry bay leaves
- 5-6 basil leaves, thinly sliced
- 16 green olives
- Thoroughly wash the chicken in cold water and set aside in a large skillet.
- To the skillet, add the oil, onion, parsley, rosemary, salt and oregano.
- Open the gas to medium and bring to a slight sizzle allowing the chicken to get some color on both sides. Lower the heat if the chicken is browning too quickly.
- Add the wine or chicken stock and bring chicken to a low simmer.
- You don't want to brown your garlic or it will become bitter, so add it now that you have added the wine.
- Cook the chicken uncovered for about 25 minutes on medium-low heat, if it looks like it's getting too dry quickly, add about 1/4 cut of water.
- About 25 minutes into the cooking, add the bay leaves, basil and olives and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
- Remove bay leaves before serving
