1 (4-pound) chicken cut up into 8 pieces

4 tablespoons olive oil

2 large sweet onions, sliced into rings

Honey Tips

Honey Bees Need Water

To keep their hives strong, beekeepers must place them in locations that will provide abundant nectar sources as well as water.

Directions

Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large non-stick skillet. Add chicken pieces skin side down and cook, turning until chicken is browned. Remove from pan. Discard pan juices.
In the same skillet heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Add onion slices and simmer covered about 12 minutes, stirrring occasionally. Add garlic and saute uncovered until onions are golden brown. Add remaining ingredients, including chicken pieces. Cover and cook 30 minutes or until chicken is very tender. Can be prepared early in the day, refrigerated and reheated for dinner - the flavors just get better.
