Ingredients

• 6 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 12 ounces Smoked sausage
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2 cups Chicken broth
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper on both sides, then sear them in the skillet for 4-5 minutes per side, or until browned. Remove and set aside.

Step 3

Slice the smoked sausage into 1/4-inch rounds and add to the same skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until browned, then remove and set aside with the chicken.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the butter. Once melted, add the diced onion and garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until softened and fragrant.

Step 5

Sprinkle the flour over the onion and garlic mixture, stirring constantly, and cook for 1 minute to form a roux.

Step 6

Slowly whisk in the chicken broth, ensuring no lumps form. Bring the mixture to a simmer and allow it to thicken slightly, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Stir in the heavy cream, paprika, thyme, and additional salt and pepper to taste.

Step 8

Return the chicken thighs and sausage to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let everything simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

Step 9

Taste the sauce and adjust seasonings as needed. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving, if desired.

Step 10

Serve hot over rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes for a hearty, satisfying meal.
