    Source of Recipe


    Recipes From Friends


    List of Ingredients


    • 1 chicken, about 3 1/2 pounds
    • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 2 cups diced yellow onions (1/2" dice)
    • 6 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
    • 3 1/2 cups diced celery (1/4" dice)
    • 3 1/2 cups peeled and diced carrots (1/4" dice)
    • 2 fresh bay leaves
    • 2 fresh thyme sprigs
    • 1 cup chicken stock, preferably homemade
    • 1/2 cup dry white wine
    • 3 cups stewed tomatoes (or a 28 ounce can)
    • kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
    • 2 tablespoons minced fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme and/or chives


    Instructions


    1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
    2. Cut the chicken into 8 pieces: 2 legs, 2 thighs, 2 breasts, and 2 wings.
    3. Melt the butter with the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook until they are softened, about 4 minutes. Add the celery, carrots, bay leaves and thyme sprigs and cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Add the chicken, stock, wine and tomatoes and season with salt and pepper.

    4. Cover the Dutch oven and place it in the oven for 1-1/2 hours. The chicken should be falling-off-the-bone tender and there should be a good amount of broth. Remove the bay leaves and thyme sprigs and garnish with the fresh herbs. Serve hot. Serves 4
