Ingredients

• 4 pieces Chicken thighs, bone-in, skin-on
• 1 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 medium White onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 8 ounces Cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 1 cup Dry white wine
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken thighs skin-side down and sear for 5-7 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy. Flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden and have released their moisture.

Step 5

Pour in the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Allow the wine to simmer for 2-3 minutes until it reduces slightly.

Step 6

Stir in the chicken broth, heavy cream, and fresh thyme. Return the chicken thighs to the skillet, skin-side up, along with any juices that have accumulated on the plate.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the chicken simmer for 20 minutes, or until fully cooked and tender. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).

Step 8

Remove the lid and simmer for an additional 5 minutes to thicken the sauce if necessary.

Step 9

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately. This dish pairs wonderfully with mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
