4 large chicken thighs hours to overnight.
2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large stockpot
1 white onion, chopped over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir
2 cups water, or as needed until soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove
½ lemon, thinly sliced chicken from marinade, discarding marinade. Add
¼ cup olives, or to taste (optional) chicken thighs skin-side down to stockpot and cook

lemon slices. Replace cover and cook until chicken

stockpot and transfer chicken to a serving platter.
Continue simmering liquid in stockpot until
thickened to sauce consistency, 5 to 7 minutes.
Spoon sauce over chicken; top with olives, if
