Ingredients
- 8 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup pitted prunes chopped
- ⅓ cup capers
- 2 tablespoons caper brine
- ½ cup pitted Spanish green olives
- ½ cup olive oil
- ⅔ cup red wine vinegar
- 2 bay leaves
- 3 tablespoons fresh oregano chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 8 chicken thighs bone in skin on
- ½ cup dry white wine
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together 8 cloves garlic, 1 cup pitted prunes, ⅓ cup capers, and 2 tablespoons caper brine, ½ cup pitted Spanish green olives, ½ cup olive oil, ⅔ cup red wine vinegar, 2 bay leaves, 3 tablespoons fresh oregano, 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper.
- Add in 8 chicken thighs be sure each chicken thigh is covered. Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate for at least 1 hour. Overnight is preferred.
- Once the chicken has marinated, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the chicken in a single layer in a shallow roasting pan and pour all the marinade and ½ cup dry white wine over the chicken.
- Bake the chicken for 55-65 minutes uncovered, basting the chicken a few times while it bakes. When the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit, and the chicken skins are a nice golden brown, remove the pan from the oven.
- Remove the chickens from the pan, along with all the olives, capers, and bay leaves. Pour the rest of the liquid into a pot and bring it to a low boil. Reduce the liquid by half, stirring occasionally.
- To serve the chickens, plate them with the olives and capers, pour the reduced cooking liquid over the chicken, and enjoy!
Notes
- Keep leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- Chicken Marbella goes well with mashed potatoes, couscous, or roasted vegetables!
- If you don’t want to use wine in this recipe, you can replace it with chicken stock or white wine vinegar.
