what you’ll need:
2lbs chicken thighs (can use boneless or bone in)
1 yellow onion
Tomato paste
Worcestershire sauce
Flour
Red wine
5 medium carrots
1lb baby red potatoes
Chicken stock
Fresh thyme
Fresh bay leaves
Minced garlic
Avocado oil
Salt & pepper
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350
In large oven safe pot (I used my Dutch oven) add in 2tbs avocado oil on high heat. Season your chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.
Once the oil is hot sear on both sides until brown then remove and set aside. This does not need to be cooked all the way, we will finish it in the oven! This process took me about 4 min, a couple min on each side.
While the meat is searing, cut up the carrots into chunks, and chop the onion & celery into small pieces.
Once the meat is done set aside turn down the heat to medium and leave the oil in. Add your chopped onion & celery, and 1 large tbs of garlic and sauté for a few min. Once those are fragrant and soft you are going to add in 1 1/2 tbs flour and 2 tbs tomato paste. Mix well. Then add 1/2 cup red wine and let it cook down for about 1-2 min.
Finally add in 2 cups chicken stock, 3 tbs Worcestershire sauce, 3 stems of fresh thyme, 2 bay leaves and stir well. You are now going to add in your meat along with the potatoes and carrots. Don’t do what I did and add the potatoes and carrots after lol add those first then the chicken on top.
Cover with a lid and bake in the oven at 350 for about 35-40 min. Take the lid off for the last 10 min to let the chicken get crispy. Taste it and add more salt & pepper if needed! That’s it! Take out a little bit of everything and drizzle some sauce on it all and enjoy!
