Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 pieces shallots, finely chopped
• 4 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup white wine
• 2 cups chicken stock
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 12 ounces pappardelle pasta
• 0.5 cup parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Season the chicken thighs with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Sear the chicken thighs for about 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the chopped shallots and garlic, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.

Step 5

Stir in the chopped rosemary and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Sprinkle the flour over the shallot mixture and stir well to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.

Step 7

Deglaze the skillet with the white wine, scraping up any flavorful bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until the wine reduces by half, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Pour in the chicken stock and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Bring the sauce to a simmer.

Step 9

Return the seared chicken thighs to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the gravy has thickened.

Step 10

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pappardelle pasta according to the package instructions. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining the pasta.

Step 11

Toss the cooked pappardelle with a ladle of the rosemary gravy and a splash of the reserved pasta water to coat the noodles lightly.

Step 12

Serve the chicken thighs over the pappardelle. Spoon extra rosemary gravy on top of the dish.

Step 13

Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley before serving.
