Mix the chicken thighs with prunes, green olives, capers, crushed garlic, grape vinegar, olive oil, thyme, bay leaves, salt, and black pepper.
Cover the bowl and marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for 8 hours.
Heat the oven to 180°C and spread the chicken with the marinade ingredients on a tray.
Sprinkle with brown sugar and pour the dry white wine in from the edge of the tray.
Bake the chicken for 45 minutes, basting occasionally with the tray juices.
When the top browns, rest for 5 minutes.
Serve with rice and bread, spooning over the tray sauce.
💡 Tip: Olives and capers are already salty, so keep the marinade salt low; adjust at the table after baking if needed.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve Chicken Marbella from a guest tray with plain rice, arugula salad, and optional bread.
