Prepare chicken by cutting it into eighths and removing the skin.

Season the chicken with salt and optionally black pepper.

Coat the chicken lightly with flour.

Heat olive oil in a large disc or skillet until hot.

Add the chicken pieces to the hot oil, placing them skin-side down to brown.

Brown the chicken on both sides, ensuring they are well separated in the pan.

Once browned, move the chicken to one side of the pan to make space for the vegetables.

Add sliced onions and minced garlic to the center of the pan and sauté until fragrant.

Sprinkle a little salt over the onions to help them release their juices.

Once the onions are softened, add white wine to the pan to deglaze, scraping up any browned bits.

Add cream to the mixture to create a sauce with the chicken and vegetables.
