This Juicy Braised Chicken Is So Easy Even You Can Make It

There’s nothing fancy about braised chicken, but it tastes really fucking good, so who cares?

There's nothing super complicated or fancy about braised chicken, but that doesn't mean it doesn't make a damn good dinner.

When LA chef and caterer to the stars Edwin "E-Dubble" Redway gets his hands on some bone-in chicken thighs, he puts flavor ahead of technique with this super simple recipe. A hard sear will put a nice crust on the thighs and finishing them in the oven means you won't compromise moistness either.

Give it a shot, why don't you—we promise that you, yes you, can master this.

RECIPE: Braised Chicken

It's a pretty basic recipe, but it doesn't taste one bit basic once you try a bite. The 24-hour marinade will break down the meat and infuse it with wine, thyme, and garlicky aromatics.

Let the marinade do the work, and you'll have lunch for days (or dinner tomorrow night).
