  • Prep Time 15 minutes
  • Total Time 40 minutes
  • Yield Serves 4

Ingredients

    • 2 pounds frozen tomatoes (4 cups), thawed
    • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (1 1/2 pounds total)
    • Coarse salt and ground pepper
    • 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced (1 cup)
    • 3 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
    • 3 sprigs oregano

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a food processor, pulse tomatoes until coarsely chopped. In a large ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Season chicken with salt and pepper and cook, skin side down, until golden and crisp, about 7 minutes. Flip and cook 1 minute. Transfer chicken to a plate and drain all but 1 tablespoon fat from skillet. Reduce heat to medium. Add onion to skillet and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and bring to a boil.
  2. Add chicken, skin side up, and oregano, then transfer skillet to oven. Cook until chicken is cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes.
