Step 1
Pat chicken dry. Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Sear chicken skin-side down 4 minutes without moving until golden.
Step 3
Flip chicken, sear 2 minutes, then push to the sides. Add onions and mushrooms to the center, stir 2 minutes.
Step 4
Pour in red wine and broth. Stir in tomato paste and thyme. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low.
Step 5
Simmer uncovered 10 minutes until chicken is cooked through and sauce reduces slightly, stirring vegetables once.
Step 6
Taste and adjust with salt and pepper. Serve hot from the skillet or in shallow bowls.
