A chicken thigh browned and simmered with peppers, onion, rosemary, white wine, and tomatoes in one covered skillet.

Ingredients

  • 1 boneless skinless chicken thigh (6 oz)
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • ⅛ tsp coarsely ground black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ¼ cup chopped onions
  • ¼ cup chopped green bell pepper
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • ½ tsp dried rosemary
  • ¼ cup dry white wine
  • ⅓ cup canned diced tomatoes including juices

Directions

  • Season the chicken on both sides with the salt and pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat for about 30 seconds. Brown the chicken for 4 minutes per side, then move it to a plate and cover it.
  • Add the onions, green pepper, garlic, and rosemary to the same skillet and cook for 2 minutes, stirring.
  • Pour in the wine and bring it to a boil. Let it bubble for 2 to 3 minutes, scraping up the browned bits, until most of the wine has cooked off.
  • Stir in the tomatoes and their juices. Put the chicken back in the pan, turn the heat down, cover, and simmer for 25 minutes, until the chicken reaches 165°F.
  • Taste the sauce and add a little more salt or pepper if it needs it.
