Ingredients

• 1 cup water
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 cup dry white wine
• 6 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1 tablespoon chicken soup base (such as Better than Bouillon®)
• 2 large yellow onions, sliced and separated into rings
• 3 (14 ounce) cans chopped tomatoes with juice
• 2 tablespoons grainy mustard
• 1.5 pounds skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Season chicken thighs generously on both sides with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Add onions and garlic and saute until onions have softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add chopped tomatoes and juice.

Step 3

Mix wine, water, mustard, and soup base together in a bowl; pour over other ingredients and bring to a boil. Lower heat to a simmer, cover, and braise until chicken is tender, about 2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
