Step by Step guide

Step 1

Heat 50 ml of olive oil together with sugar syrup, a star anise, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture over the chicken thighs and place them in the refrigerator.

Step 2

After four hours, remove from the container, place on a baking sheet, and put in the oven preheated to 356°F for forty minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, slice the onion into thin half-rings. In a skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over low heat along with the star anise. Slowly caramelize the onion in this star anise-infused oil for about half an hour, stirring constantly and occasionally adding a few drops of wine and water. Season the onions with salt and pepper once they reach a caramelized state. Serve with chicken.
