How to Make Braised Chicken Legs with Tomatoes, Onions, and Garlic

1. Season and Brown Chicken

Season the chicken legs with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken legs for 12 minutes skin side down, then turn and cook for another 4 minutes.

2. Saute Onions and Aromatics

Remove the chicken from the pan, add onions and cook for 5 minutes. Then add garlic, bay leaf, and rosemary sprig, cooking for another 2 minutes until fragrant.

3. Add Tomatoes and Broth

Add diced tomatoes to the pan and cook for 5 minutes. Return the chicken legs to the pan, add chicken broth, and bring to a gentle boil before reducing to a simmer for about 45 minutes.

4. Serve

To finish, skim any excess fat from the surface and serve the chicken legs with the rich tomato and onion sauce.
