  4. Brown the remaining chicken in 2 batches. Pour off all but 1 Tbsp. fat. Return the chicken to the pot with any juice which has accumulated.

Add in the vinegar and scrape the bottom of the pan to dislodge any brown bits.
  7. Add in the mushrooms, the onions with any liquid and the remaining 1/4 tsp. pepper to the chicken and simmer till the chicken is just done, 10 to 15 min longer. Serve topped with the fresh herbs.
  8. The author suggests wrapping the fresh herbs in a paper towel and putting them in a plastic bag loosely closed and kept in the refrigerator.
