In a large pan or pot with a tight-fitting lid, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and season it liberally with salt and pepper.

In the same pan, melt the butter. Add the onion and celery and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.

Step 4

Add the garlic, thyme, rosemary, and crushed red pepper flakes. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
