Method
- 1
Soak the dried porcini in 100ml just-boiled water for 10 minutes, then drain, reserving the liquid, and chop.
- 2
Heat the olive oil in a large, deep frying pan over a medium-high heat and brown the chicken thighs, skin-side down first, for 4-5 minutes on each side. Lift out onto a plate.
- 3
Add the onion and chestnut mushrooms to the pan and cook for 8 minutes until golden, then add the garlic and porcini and cook for 1 minute.
- 4
Pour in the white wine, bubble for 2 minutes, then add the chicken stock and the reserved porcini liquid. Return the chicken to the pan, cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through with no pink remaining and the juices run clear.
