Instructions
- 1
Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken breasts in a single layer and sear for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden on the outside. Transfer the chicken to a plate — it will not be fully cooked through at this point.

Reduce the heat to medium. Add the diced onion to the same pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute — watch closely so it doesn't brown.
