1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2

Heat oil in a heavy Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned all over, 8 to 10 minutes. Add potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, and bouillon, then pour in water. Stir to combine, cover, and bring to a boil.
3

Move the covered Dutch oven to the preheated oven and cook until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should register 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
