Oven-Braised Chicken Thighs with Fennel and Castelvetrano Olives

This recipe is infinitely variable. It can serve as a stand-alone stew with a side of crusty bread or a sauce over noodles, rice, or potatoes. I follow a paleo diet and serve it on zucchini noodles with a side of broccoli raab cooked with anchovy, garlic, and lemon. The sweetness of the onions and fennel counters the bitterness of the broccoli raab beautifully.

Step: 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step: 2

Heat olive oil in a large, heavy cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season chicken thighs with salt and black pepper. Brown chicken in the hot oil, about 5 minutes per side. Meat will still be pink inside. Transfer chicken into a bowl, leaving drippings in skillet.

Step: 3

Turn heat down to medium; cook fennel, onion, and fennel seeds in the hot oil, stirring occasionally, until onion and fennel begin to caramelize, about 10 minutes. Stir garlic, thyme, and chile de arbol pepper into fennel mixture. Cook until garlic is fragrant, about 1 more minute. Stir white wine into fennel mixture, scraping up and dissolving any browned bits of food on the bottom of the skillet.

Step: 4

Pour tomatoes with puree into skillet and bring to a boil. Break tomatoes into large chunks with a wooden spoon; adjust salt and pepper. Add chicken thighs, any accumulated drippings from chicken, and olives to the skillet and stir to combine.

Step: 5

Bake uncovered in the preheated oven until the chicken thighs are no longer pink inside, about 45 minutes. Let cool 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with fennel greens, flat-leaf parsley, and lemon zest.

To much possesion yourself can lead to lot of eat , late-night snacking, and mindless eats and it’s for this mind that Riner encourages people to indulge in “fun” foods every once in a while.

Avoidance on 2.00 AM snacking and cravings , it is much necessary to include some fun foods (or what one may perceive as unnecessary ). It means , if we can be order the healthiest thing on the menu but come home and graze on chips, necessary we really will the burger and should have just enjoyed it in the first place."

When it comes to eat on evening , much eat or eating too much of the wrong item of food can lead to bad habit on sleeping. On the other side, a daylight food that is less than satiating not make leave you want more and resulting in reaching for an eat bad food late-night side dish even closer to bedtime .
