    Nothing makes a cold winter night more bearable than a hot and hearty meal made in the oven. Some dishes I love to prepare in the winter are Braised Brisket with Potatoes and Vegetables, Turmeric Braised Chicken with Beets and Leeks, and Baked Chicken Enchiladas.,Alt=Alt=,When it comes to chicken, some many people prefer breasts, but personally Im a thigh girl all the way. Chicken breasts of course have their place as breaded cutlets or in chicken salad, but when it comes to braised dishes, dark meat is my first choice because its more versatile and forgiving, and bonus, more affordable.,Cut off the dark green part of the leek, trimming to the part where the color is a pale green.,Cut off the root end then slice the stalk the lengthwise.,Run leeks under cold water, separating the layers slightly to help remove any dirt.,Place the leeks in a bowl of cool water, to let and dirt sink to the bottom, then strain, dry and slice.,Baked Chicken Thighs with Brussels Sprouts and Sweet Potato,Asian Glazed Boneless Chicken Thighs,Baked Apple Cider Chicken and Cabbage,Chicken Thighs with Shallots in Red Wine Vinegar
