Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
10 chicken thigh without skin
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium onions -- coarsely chopped
3 garlic cloves -- minced
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 cup red wine
14 ounces canned crushed tomatoes -- with juice (1 can to 15-oz)
1/2 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley

Sprinkle the chicken evenly with the salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-heat. Add the chicken and brown on all sides.

Transfer the browned meat to the insert of a 5 to 7-quart slow cooker. melt the butter in the same skillet. Add the onions, garlic, and thyme and saute until the onion is softened, about 5 minutes.

Add the wine and tomatoes and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Transfer the contents of the pan to the slow cooker insert. Cover and cook on low fro 6 to 8 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender, falling off the bone. Skim off any fat from the top of the sauce.

Stir in the parsley and serve from the cooker set on warm.

Serves 6 to 8.

AuthorNote: The flavors of Provence combine in this delicious slow cooker entree, which turns your kitchen into a French bistro for the night. The thighs soak up the garlic, red wine, and thyme-flavored tomato sauce that is delicious served over potatoes, pasta, or rice.

ChupaNote: I used canned crushed tomatoes with garlic and chile peppers. Double the parsley. I also doubled the pepper and used red pepper flakes.
