Preparation

Preparation:

  1. Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat

  2. Add the chicken pieces and sear them on all sides until golden brown

  3. Pour 1 cup of dry white wine over the chicken and allow it to simmer until the alcohol evaporates

  4. Season the chicken with salt and black pepper to taste

  5. Add boiling water to the pot until the chicken is fully covered

  6. For extra flavor, add thyme sprigs and a bay leaf (optional)

  7. Cover the pot and let it simmer on low heat for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the chicken is cooked through and tender

Notes

Notes:

  • Make sure to let the wine simmer until the alcohol has evaporated to avoid a strong alcohol flavor

  • The thyme and bay leaf add subtle flavor but can be omitted for a simpler dish

  • Adjust the seasoning to your preference, adding more salt or pepper if needed
