Instructions
Preheat oven to 500°.
Place shallots, sweet onions, and
red onions in a large oval Dutch
oven. Place butter cubes on top.
Bake until onions begin to
caramelize, about 45 minutes.
Carefully remove from oven;
add broth and brandy, scraping
bottom of pot.
Sprinkle both sides of chicken with
salt and pepper. Place chicken on
top of onion mixture. Drizzle with
oil, and place thyme over chicken.
Bake until golden brown and a
meat thermometer inserted in
thickest portion registers 165°,
about 1 hour. Let stand for
5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with thyme, if desired.
