CHICKEN THIGHS WITH FENNEL AND TOMATOES
INGREDIENTS
3-4 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 large fennel bulb and fronds - sliced
1 medium onion - sliced
4 cloves garlic - minced
32 ounces cherry tomatoes
½ cup dry white wine
Salt and pepper to taste
½ cup olive oil - divided

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Season chicken thighs aggressively with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Heat a large pan to medium heat and coat with a couple tablespoons of olive oil. Pat chicken pieces dry right before placing into the pan making sure not to overcrowd. Sear ~3 minutes per side and set chicken pieces aside. Work in batches.
3. To the same pan add in the fennel and cook for 1 minute. If the pan is dry add a bit more olive oil. Add in the onions and garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes longer.
4. Turn heat to high and add in the wine. With a wooden spoon scrape the bottom of the pan to remove all the brown bits. Boil for 3 minutes then turn off the heat.
5. Coat a large roasting pan with a couple of tablespoons of olive oil. Place all the fennel into the pan, then the chicken and cherry tomatoes. Sprinkle the fennel fronds on top and drizzle a couple more tablespoons of olive oil all over.
6. Braise the chicken thighs at 325f for 45-60 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165f. The chicken can be broiled for the last 2-3 minutes if desired to crisp it up on top. Enjoy!

NOTE:
- An Instant-Read thermometer is a great kitchen tool to have. Use it to check the chicken for the exact temp!
