Mix all of the marinade ingredients together and let the chicken thighs marinade for preferably overnight or at least 2 hours
Preheat the oven to 375ºF. On an oiled pan on high heat, sear the chicken thighs skin side down until a crust has formed (about 3-5 minutes).
Add more oil on the pan if needed, and then add in the onions and cook until brown. Add in the rest of the ingredients, snuggle in the chicken thighs, and bake for 18-20 minutes. Keep an eye on it and add water into the pan if needed.
Add more liquid such as water in the end for a more liquid and thin braise sauce.
