  • 36.40 gm extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 brown onion, chopped
  • 12 skinless chicken thigh cutlets

Instructions:
  • In a large frying pan over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until softened. Transfer the onion to the slow cooker.
