Ingredients
-
4 slices bacon
-
1 tablespoon bacon drippings
-
¼ cup all-purpose flour
-
½ teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
-
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
-
2 pounds skinless chicken thighs
-
1 red onion, sliced
-
1 large apple, cored and sliced
-
1 head red cabbage, cored and sliced
-
½ cup red wine vinegar
-
¼ cup dry red wine
-
¼ cup brown sugar
-
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (Optional)
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
-
Place bacon in a large oven-safe or cast iron skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate until cool; crumble bacon. Leave bacon drippings in the skillet.
-
Whisk flour, kosher salt, and smoked paprika together in a medium bowl until evenly combined. Coat chicken thighs evenly in seasoned flour.
-
Cook coated chicken thighs in drippings in the skillet over medium heat until browned, about 5 minutes per side; transfer chicken to a plate.
-
Drain grease in the skillet except for 1 tablespoon; cook and stir onion and apple in hot grease until onion is translucent and apple is softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in red cabbage and crumbled bacon; season with kosher salt. Cook, stirring often, until cabbage is softened, 5 to 8 minutes.
-
Pour vinegar and red wine into the skillet. Stir in brown sugar and cinnamon until well combined. Bring to a boil; cook until sauce is reduced by half, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Arrange chicken thighs on top of cabbage in the skillet.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until cabbage is tender and chicken is cooked through, about 40 minutes. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
