Nigella's Slow Cooked Chicken

Nigella's Slow Cooked Chicken

Chicken (I used 6 thighs, but her recipe calls for a whole chicken cut into pieces)
2 lemons cut into eighths
1 head of garlic broken into cloves but not peeled.
Thyme (recipe calls for fresh, I didn't have any on hand, dried worked nicely)
Olive oil and some white wine.

Toss the chicken, lemon pieces and garlic cloves in olive oil to coat. Sprinkle with thyme and some black pepper.

Sprinkle some white wine over (3 or 4 tbsps.)

Cover tightly with foil and bake in 160 (350f?) oven for 2 hours.
Remove foil and turn oven up to 200 (420f?) for another 30 minutes.

The chicken was fork tender and the lemons were roasted and carmelized and very mellow tasting.
