What Monday wasn’t improved by a little wine hanging out in dinner land?

And by dinner land I definitely mean in both your white wine braised chicken and your wine glass.

Maybe even in your dessert too? Hey, it’s either you’re all in or not in.

And believe me. You wanna be all.freaking.in for this white wine braised chicken. There’s baby potatoes and mushrooms too, guys. It’s the freaking best thing your Monday dinner could ever dream of.

Braised chicken is the easy of the PEASY, guys! Best thing about it is that it’s pretty much hands-off work. Almost, kinda sorta. >>>

Braising 101 is as follows: Sear your chicken thighs on both sides, remove ’em, and then saute your aromatics (garlic, herbs, etc)

Throw whatever add-ins you’re braising into the pan which for today includes baby potatoes + mushrooms. Wine and chicken broth into the pan and then nestle the chicken thighs back in.

Cover it and throw it all in the oven to let the braising magic do its business.

Our work here is basically done so feel free to pour yourself another glass of wine.

Then feel free to eat this chicken straight outta the pan, cause HOLY MOLY it is so freaking good. Not even the wine talking.
