Salvadoran Chicken in White Wine Recipe

Equipment

  • Large oven-proof skillet or Dutch oven
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Cutting board and knife
  • Tongs or spatula
  • Aluminum foil or lid for covering the skillet during baking

Ingredients

  • 8 chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp. paprika
  • bay leaf
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper on both sides.
  • In a large oven-proof skillet or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  • Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the white wine to the skillet and bring to a boil, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
  • Add the chicken broth, oregano, thyme, paprika, bay leaf, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine.
  • Add the chicken back to the skillet, skin-side up, and spoon some of the sauce over the chicken.
  • Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil and transfer to the preheated oven. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Remove from the oven and discard the bay leaf. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

Tip and Tricks

 
Pat the chicken dry with paper towels before seasoning and cooking to ensure a crispy skin.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked through (165°F or 75°C).
Make sure to use an oven-proof skillet or Dutch oven that can go from stovetop to oven to save time and dishes.
