A cozy, flavorful dinner recipe featuring perfectly seared boneless chicken thighs in a rich sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 pieces boneless chicken thighs (about 1½ pounds)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • To taste Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 small shallot, finely minced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • ⅓ cup heavy cream
  • As needed fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Season the boneless chicken thighs evenly with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken thighs and sear them for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Once done, remove the thighs and set them aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the minced shallot and garlic. Sauté for about 2 minutes until softened and aromatic.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, scraping the bottom of the pan to loosen any browned bits. Add the thyme sprigs and crushed red pepper flakes.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Return the chicken to the skillet, adding the butter and stirring until it melts into the sauce.
  6. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Garnish with chopped parsley right before serving.

Notes

Serve over rice or mashed potatoes; pairs well with a salad or crusty bread.
