8 piece chicken
1 cup flour
Creole seasoning (2-1/2 Tbsp paprika, 2 Tbsp salt, 2 Tbsp garlic powder, 1 Tbsp pepper, 1 Tbsp onion powder, dash or more cayenne, 1 Tbsp oregano, 1 Tbsp thyme)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cups (1 large) chopped onions

Season chicken well with Creole seasoning. Season flour with remaining Creole seasoning. Dredge chicken in flour. Heat oil in large pot over medium-heat heat. Brown chicken 3-4 minutes on each side, in batches if necessary. Set chicken aside.

Add onions to pot. Season with salt and pepper; saute for 2 minutes. Add mushrooms and garlic. Season with more salt and pepper; sauté for 2 minutes. Stir in wine, tomatoes, tomato sauce, and stock.
