In the same pan, add your sliced onions and saute until golden brown. Then add your garlic and minced sweet peppers and saute for 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and saute for about 7-8 minutes, until most of the water is gone and they are almost cooked through. Mix everything together well.", "Add the red wine, mix well, and let reduce for 3-4 minutes. Then add the balsamic, mix well and let reduce for another 3-4 minutes. Finally add the canned tomatoes and mix everything together nicely. Even out the mixture, and place the chicken thighs skin side up in the pan. Don't crowd them too much!", "Add enough chicken stock to the pan to raise the liquid level, but don't cover that beautiful crisped chicken skin! Just up to the skin will be wonderful, and you'll get the benefits of braising without soggy, crispy, operatic fatty bits :) Place the pan (open) on the middle rack in the oven, and bake for 45 minutes.", "When finished, remove the chicken pieces and set on a platter. Put the pan back on the stove burner and medium high and reduce the leftover stock for about 5 minutes, adding the red chili flakes and half a teaspoon of salt to taste. Spoon the wonderfulness on top of the chicken and serve!", "Note: The leftover sauce is to die for. I love mixing it in with pasta, scrambled eggs, or sauteing it with some spicy sausage the next day."]
