Basque style chicken (Poulet Basquaise)
This is a truly excellent and uncomplicated dinner or supper option. It contains everything you require in a single pot. I prefer to prepare it with chicken legs or thighs, as they are more flavorful than breasts and less prone to drying out. Espelette chillies, cultivated in the Basque region of southwest France, offer a lovely mild and aromatic flavor that complements this dish perfectly. If you can't find them, feel free to substitute with other chilies to your liking. This dish is even more enjoyable when prepared ahead of time and then reheated.

Prepare the chicken thighs. Season them with salt and smoke paprika. Heat the oil in an ovenproof pan or flameproof casserole dish and fry the chicken pieces until golden brown on both sides. Remove them from the pan and set them aside.

Tie the bay leaves and thyme springs together and add them to the pan along with wine and chilli flakes. Add extra chilli if you like for your food really spicy.

Add the tomatoes, then put the chicken and any juices back into the pan and stir gently. Put a lid on the pan or cover it tightly with foil and place it in oven for 30 minutes or until the chicken juices run clear. Check the seasoning, then serve or set aside to enjoy later.
