Ingredients:
8 Skin-on, Bone-in Chicken Thighs
1 T Extra Virgin Olive Oil
15 oz Marinated Artichoke Hearts, saving some liquid
1 cup Castelvetrano Olives, saving some liquid
1 Jar of Roasted Red Peppers, saving some liquid, or use Peppadews is you want it spicy
1 Head of Garlic, halved crosswise
1 Lemon, juiced
1 cup Chicken Stock
1/2 cup Semidry Sherry, or any white wine you like
1 T Fish Sauce (Optional)
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 400. Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper. In a large cast-iron skillet, heat the oil. Add half of the chicken skin side down, cook over moderate heat until browned and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Repeat with the remaining chicken, remove all f the chicken from the pan.
- Saute the artichoke hearts, olives, peppers, and garlic in the cast iron for 2 minutes to heat them.
- Add in the brine from the artichokes, olives, and peppers. When saving the liquid from these ingredients you only want about a fourth of a cup total, the ratio is up to you. Add the lemon juice, chicken stock, sherry/wine, and fish sauce. Bring this to a boil, add the chicken back in, then bring down to a simmer.
- Roast in the oven for 20 minutes or until done, in the summer time I don't turn the oven on if I don't have to so you can simmer it on the stove for about the same amount of time, always check the temperature of your chicken before eating.
- Sprinkle with chopped Italian Parsley and serve with your favorite vegetables or over mashed potatoes.
