  6. Add chicken back in the pot in one layer, turn the heat back up to medium high, and bring to a gentle boil (this should take 3 or 4 minutes).
  7. Turn the heat down to medium low and simmer with the lid slightly askew for 20 minutes.
  8. Flip each piece of chicken and let it braise on the other side, uncovered, for another 25 minutes.
