- Add onion wedges to the skillet and sauté for a few minutes. Stir in minced garlic and reduce heat to medium.
- Pour in chicken broth and red cooking wine.
- Stir in tomato paste, bay leaf, thyme, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a light boil.

- Remove the cover, add sliced mushrooms, and bake for another 15 minutes.
- Plate the chicken and mushrooms, spoon sauce over, and enjoy!
Notes
Crispy Bacon: Cook the bacon low and slow to render out more fat for extra flavor.
Thicker Sauce: Simmer the sauce uncovered for a few minutes after baking to thicken it.
Garnish Boost: Sprinkle fresh parsley over the dish before serving for added freshness.
