Steps:
- Coat a large, wide, deep pan with olive oil and bring to a high heat. Pat the chicken skin dry with paper towels and season generously with salt. Add chicken skin side down to the pan. You should hear a big sizzle as the thighs hit the pan. Do not try to move the chicken, the skin will stick itself to the bottom of the pan and will unstick itself when it is ready. If the pan is smoking excessively turn the burner down and continue to cook. When the skin is brown and crispy, turn the chicken over and brown it on the other side. Remove the chicken from the pan and reserve.
- Lower the heat if you have not already done so and ditch most of the excess fat. Add the pancetta and brown. When the pancetta has started to get brown and crispy add the onions. Season with salt and crushed red pepper and sweat over medium heat for 7 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and saute for 3 to 4 minutes or until they release their juices. Add the wine and reduce by half. Return the chicken to the pan. Add chicken stock to almost cover the chicken. Add the thyme and bay leaves. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer the chicken for 30 to 35 minutes. Add more chicken stock, if needed.
- While the chicken is cooking puree the almonds in the food processor. Drizzle in a little olive oil while the machine is running to make this a loose paste. Season with salt and reserve.
- Once the chicken has cooked for 30 to 35 minutes, remove it from the pan and reserve. Taste the sauce for seasoning and stir in the almond puree. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer to thicken the sauce, if needed. The almond puree will help to thicken the sauce and to make it very rich.
- Serve the chicken over Sauteed Haricots Verts or your favorite green vegetable. Spoon the mushroom almond sauce over and garnish with chopped chives.
- Bring a large pot of well salted water to a boil. Set up a bowl of well salted ice water for shocking.
- Add the beans to the boiling water and cook until the beans are tender but still toothsome about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the boiling water and place immediately into the salted ice water. Once the beans are cool, remove them from the water and set aside until ready to use.
- Coat a large saute pan with olive oil. Add the garlic and the crushed red pepper and bring to a medium-high heat. When the garlic has become golden and very aromatic, remove it and discard. It has fulfilled its garlic destiny. Add the beans to the pan and saute until they are hot and coated with oil. Season with salt and serve right away.

BRAISED CHICKEN WITH TOMATO AND ROSEMARY
This recipe is from Autralian Good Food June 2010 Easy one-pot family meals bonus book. My dad made this for me and the chicken was so tender and tasty. The sauce is delicious and hearty with its Italian flavours, it makes a great winter meal. I would not recommend leaving out the anchovies if you don't like them. I don't like them, but I didn't know they were in there until dad told me! I think they are important to the flavour of the sauce, as are the capers and rosemary. If you don't have fresh rosemary, dried works just fine. You could also use chicken breast instead of thigh fillets, I don't usually like thigh fillets, but in this dish I thought they were delicious, very tender and almost falling apart. You would probably not get quite the same result with breast. If you do use breast you will have to reduce the cooking time. Also, make sure you use a pan with a lid, because it needs to be covered during part of the cooking process. It is great served with salad greens and crusty bread.

BRAISED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH ROSEMARY AND BACON
Delicious and quick, with ingredients usually on hand. Very savory, and a good way to extend a recipe for a family. My husband absolutely loved this! He had seconds, I had to save a piece back for me to take for lunch to work! Good served with hot noodles or rice to absorb the sauce.

Steps:
- Place bacon in a large frying pan and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and snip into bits.
- Drain bacon grease from the pan and add olive oil and butter to the same pan. Add garlic and brown slightly over medium heat, 1 to 2 minutes. Add chicken, salt, and pepper; brown until chicken is staring to crisp but is not too done, about 8 minutes. Remove chicken and drain on a paper towel.
- Drain most of the oil and butter from the pan, leaving just a small amount for flavor. Add chicken broth, tomato paste, wine, and bacon bits; bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to low and return chicken thighs to the skillet. Cover and simmer until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:
- Use a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the chicken from burning.
- Brown the chicken before braising: This will help to develop flavor and give the chicken a nice golden color.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor and nutrients to the dish. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, and mushrooms.
- Use a flavorful braising liquid: This could be anything from chicken broth to white wine. You can also add herbs, spices, and aromatics to taste.
