Preparation
1
Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
Wash and dry all produce.
Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then cut each thigh in half.

Peel, then thinly slice half the onion (use whole onion for 4 servings). Separate onion slices.

To a small pot, add onions, vinegar, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high.
Once simmering, cook for 1-2 min stirring often. Remove from heat.
