Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 (3 1/2-4 lb) chicken (cut up, rinse, pat dry)
1/2 cup olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced
1 carrot, diced
1 celery rib, diced
4 garlic cloves, chopped
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
1 (28 ounce) can plum tomatoes (I cut them up in the can with my kitchen shears)
1/4 cup dry red wine (Carbernet Savignon or a Pinot Noir work well)
1/4 cup fresh parsley

Steps:

Put the olive oil into the bottom of your dutch oven over medium heat.
Mix together the flour, salt and pepper.
Lightly dredge your clean, dry chicken pieces in your flour mixture and place them in your dutch oven. Cook them 4-5 minutes on each side until they are a golden brown color. Remove the chicken pieces from your pot and set aside.
Add your onion, carrot, celery, garlic, thyme and bay leaf to the pot. Add your red wine. Give the mixture a little mix with your wooden spoon and scrape up all the yummy brown bits from the bottom of your pot.
Add your cut up plum tomatoes and parsley.
Bring sauce to a boil. Turn your heat to low to bring the sauce to a simmer. Arrange your browned chicken pieces in the sauce and put the lid on the pot. Cook over low heat for 45 minutes.
