1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

6 skinless, bone-in chicken thighs (about 2-1/4 lb.), large pieces of fat trimmed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large yellow onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 small cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup dry sherry or dry white wine
2 large Yukon Gold potatoes (1 lb. total), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
2 sprigs fresh thyme, plus 1-1/2 tsp. chopped

1 cup coarse fresh breadcrumbs (about 1-1/2 oz.)
2 cups baby spinach leaves (about 2 oz.)

Description

Be Sure To Buy Good-quality Dried Porcini Mushrooms (with Large White Cross Sections). Cheaper Ones Are Dark And Shriveled And Have An Overly Pungent Aroma, Which Will Give The Stew An Off Taste.
