1 . Stage

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spread the walnuts in a pie plate and toast in the oven for 8 minutes, until fragrant. Let cool.

In a large, deep skillet, heat the olive oil until shimmering. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper and cook over moderately high heat, turning once, until lightly browned on both sides, about 8 minutes total. Transfer the chicken to a plate.

Return the chicken with any juices to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook over low heat until the chicken is tender and cooked through, about 30 minutes.
