Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes per side.
Step 3
Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
Step 4
In the same pot, add the onions and garlic. Cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
Step 5
Pour in the red wine and bring to a boil. Simmer for 5 minutes to reduce the wine by half.
Step 6
Add the tomatoes, chicken broth, paprika, thyme, salt, black pepper, and bay leaf to the pot. Return the chicken to the pot, skin side up.
Step 7
Cover the pot with a lid and place it in the preheated oven. Braise the chicken for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
Step 8
Remove the pot from the oven and discard the bay leaf. Stir in the parsley and serve the Poulet Basquaise hot.
Step 9
Optional: Serve with a side of mashed potatoes or crusty bread.
