Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine ingredients in an oven-safe pot.
Cover and oven-braise for 45 minutes to 1 ½ hours. (Time depends on the size of the cut of chicken you’re using. For smaller dices of boneless chicken 45 minutes, for bone-in chicken, up to 1-½ hours. Check for tenderness at 1 hour, then again in 15 minute increments, or use a thermometer probe.)
If you’d like the top of your ingredients to brown, remove the lid during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
Remove from the oven and rest with the lid on for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve as a stew, or over mashed potatoes, rice, couscous, quinoa, or pasta.

Notes

Adjust the protein ratio according to preference or what you have available. // Feel free to replace with any veggies you have on hand or prefer! // You can use your favorite broth, or wine, or combination of the two (Use 2 cups if you prefer more sauce)
