Step:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

  2. Rinse chicken thighs and pat dry. Season the chicken with salt, pepper, paprika, and thyme.

  3. In a large ovenproof pan (or Dutch oven) on the stove top, heat the olive oil and then brown the chicken thighs lightly on both sides on medium heat.

  8. Place the pan into the heated oven and bake for 40minutes. Remove the lid, add the parsley, and bake for an additional 20 minutes at 300 uncovered to thicken the sauce.

  9. Remove the pan from the oven and set aside for 10 minutes to cool a bit. Cover the pan loosely to retain heat and to allow some moisture to escape.
