Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 2 skin-on chicken thighs (4 to 5 ounces each)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons finely-chopped fresh parsley
- 1 small vine-ripened tomato, sliced
Directions

Cook's Note
For a crisp skin and succulent interior, cook chicken thighs over low, steady heat, and don't turn them over too soon.
