Chicken Thighs with Shallots in Red Wine Vinegar (Poulet Au Vinaigre)

Step 1

Season the chicken with salt and pepper.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine vinegar, honey, 3/4 cup chicken broth and tomato paste. Boil about 5 minutes, until it reduces down to about 3/4 cup. Remove from heat.

Step 3

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat and add chicken. Cook on both sides, until brown, about 6-8 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.

Step 4

Add the shallots and garlic to the skillet and cook on low until soft, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Return chicken to the skillet and pour the sauce over the chicken, add the wine, remaining broth, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer about 20 minutes until tender.

Step 6

Remove the chicken, add sour cream and stir into the sauce (if sauce dries up, add more broth). Boil a few minutes then return chicken to skillet. Top with fresh parsley.
