Steps:
- Heat a large skillet on medium high heat. Add mustard and fennel seeds to toast; cook and stir until fragrant (about 2 minutes). Transfer from hot pan to avoid over-toasting. Crush toasted seeds and set aside.
- Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in the same skillet on medium-high heat. Cook chicken in batches, 5 minutes per side or until golden brown. Remove chicken from skillet; cover and keep warm.
- Add onion; cook and stir about 5 minutes or until softened. Add minced garlic and cook stirring for 2 minutes. Stir in wine, parsley, tomatoes, crushed toasted seeds and chicken. Bring to a low boil. Reduce heat to low; cover. Let simmer on low for at least 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- If serving right away, remove cover and simmer an additional 10 to 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. If time permits, cover and transfer to warm oven (about 250-degrees F) to continue to braise for 2-3 hours until ready to serve.
- Serve over rice or pasta, if desired.
RED WINE AND TOMATO BRAISED CHICKEN
Simple red wine and tomato braised chicken drumsticks. Easy and delicious comfort food for the fall or winter months! Serve with Yukon Gold mashed potatoes and vegetables (these green beans almondine would be an excellent choice!) for a wonderful main course. If you want to get fancy, French the chicken drumsticks. Cutting the tendons and ligaments near the knuckle allows the meat to plump and pull together during cooking and, in my opinion, results in more tender meat.

Steps:
- Remove the chicken drumsticks from the fridge and allow them to sit out at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Using a small knife, carefully French the drumsticks (leaving the skin on - this simply involves trimming the tendon and cleaning the bone).
- Season the drumsticks generously with salt and pepper. Lightly dredge the drumsticks in the all purpose flour.
- Heat a large Dutch Oven (5 to 6 Quarts) or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add a small layer of vegetable oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add the drumsticks to the pan, setting them apart by 1 to 2 inches. You may need to sear the drumsticks in batches to avoid over-crowding the pan.
- Sear the drumsticks until golden brown on all sides (be careful when flipping the pieces as the oil may splatter). Once the drumsticks are finished searing, set them aside on a large rimmed plate. If needed, you may need to add a bit more oil to the pot between batches.
- Once the drumsticks are seared, return the pan to medium high heat - leave roughly 1-2 tablespoons of chicken fat in the pan - and add the chopped onions to the pan, sautéing them for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the diced carrots and celery and continue to cook over medium heat, allowing the vegetables to gain some color and caramelize. If they gain too much color, add a small splash of water to the pan to deglaze and add moisture.
- Add the tomato paste and cook for for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until thickened. Deglaze the pan with the red wine and using the edge of a wooden spoon, scrape any caramelized bits off the bottom of the pan. Continue to cook until the wine has reduced significantly and the mixture is very thick (and the pan is almost dry).
- Add the bay leaves, chicken stock, and diced tomatoes to the pot. Bring to a low simmer and then carefully add the seared drumsticks (and any juices on then plate) to the pot. The stock should submerge the drumsticks a third or halfway up.
- Cover and braise the chicken - the cooking liquid should be at a very low simmer (a couple small bubbles every few seconds) - for 2 to 2½ hours. Check the pot every 30 minutes or so, adjusting the heat as needed and stirring occasionally, or until the meat is very tender and almost falling off the bone.
- Before serving, season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with Yukon Gold mashed potatoes and vegetables (these green beans almondine would be an excellent choice!) for a wonderful, comforting main course.
- Note: If you have leftover braising liquid, do not throw it out. It is full of flavor and body (gelatin). Use as a pasta sauce, soup, or stock base. It can also be reduced, strained and made into a delicious pan sauce!

Steps:
- 1. For Wine and Tomato Braised Chicken: Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 4 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Crumble when cool.

Steps:
- Put the oil in a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When it's hot, add the chicken, skin side down. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook undisturbed, adjusting the heat so the chicken doesn't burn, until the pieces are browned on the bottom and release easily from the skillet, 5 to 10 minutes. Continue cooking, turning the chicken every few minutes, until it's brown all over, 5 to 10 minutes more. Remove the chicken from the pan and pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat.
- Add the onions and capers and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and tomatoes; cook until the mixture starts to bubble and the tomatoes thicken slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the wine and let the mixture bubble for another 2 minutes.
- Add the olives and thyme, and return the chicken to the skillet, nestling the pieces into the sauce. Adjust the heat so the liquid bubbles gently but steadily, then cover the skillet. Cook, turning the chicken every 10 minutes or so and adding a splash of stock or water if the sauce looks too dry, until the chicken is tender and cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh should read 155 to 165). Taste the sauce, and adjust the seasoning. Garnish with the parsley, and serve.
