Quiet ... sweet quiet!

Do you hear that? Yes ... it is the sound of my entire house completely quiet!!! The only sound I hear is the sound of me typing on the computer. Oh ... the sweet sound of nothing! My favorite thing in the world to do is to be alone in my house. I can get SO much done. The boys are away on play dates and Babycakes and Lawyer are grocery shopping.

I just caught a quick segment on the Food Network and found this amazing recipe! If I only ate meat ... I would be making it for myself. Since I don't I will make it this week for the family! I could just smell the onions and wine cooking ... YUM!!

Get Yo' Man Chicken

2 tablespoons olive oil 6 chicken thighs, skinless
1 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoons pepper
1 medium onion, sliced
1 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup white wine
1 (14.5-ounce) can crushed tomatoes in thick puree
1 tablespoon fresh or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon fresh or 1/2 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon lemon-pepper
Hot buttered rice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat.
Pat chicken dry with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper. Brown the chicken, meat-side down first, and turning once, about 4 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate to reserve.
Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of oil from the pan.

Add onion to the pan and saute until tender, roughly 3 minutes. Add the stock and wine and stir, scrapping any brown bits off the bottom of the pan. Turn heat to high and reduce by half, about 3 minutes. Pour in the crushed tomatoes and add the dried herbs and lemon pepper. Add the chicken thighs back in. Cover and cook on medium low for 40 minutes.

Remove chicken from liquid and serve on hot buttered rice. Ladle the sauce on top and garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
