Instructions

  1. Season the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of herbes de Provence. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken on both sides, then set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, sauté the onion until soft. Add garlic and cook for an additional minute.
  3. Pour in the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for a few minutes until they start to soften and burst, releasing their juices.
  4. Return the chicken to the skillet. Add chicken broth, olives, capers, and additional herbes de Provence. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for 25-30 minutes.
  5. Once the chicken is cooked through, sprinkle lemon zest over the top. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving with a crusty baguette, pasta, polenta or a green salad.

Notes

  • If you're using boneless chicken thighs, reduce the cooking time slightly to avoid drying them out.
  • For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the white wine with additional chicken broth and a splash of lemon juice.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of garlic and herbs to suit your taste.
  • The dish can be made ahead and refrigerated, as the flavors deepen and meld beautifully overnight.
  • Serve with your choice of side—bread, pasta, or a fresh salad complements this dish wonderfully.
