ingredients

3/4 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup dry white wine or vermouth
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme

Saute the onion and garlic in oil in a large non-stick skillet until tender, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with flour, then cook and stir for 1 minute.

Add the broth, wine, thyme, salt, and saffron; mix well. Add the chicken, spooning the sauce over the pieces.
