Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 4 chicken thighs (boneless, skinless)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 0.5 cup heavy cream
• 3 garlic cloves (minced)
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix smoked paprika, ground cinnamon, and brown sugar. Set aside.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken thighs and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low and add butter. Once melted, stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the paprika-cinnamon-brown sugar mixture to the skillet, stirring constantly to combine and create a paste-like consistency.

Step 6

Pour in lemon juice and heavy cream, whisking until the sauce is smooth. Let the sauce simmer for 3-4 minutes to thicken slightly.

Step 7

Return the chicken thighs to the skillet, coating them in the sauce. Cover and let cook for another 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 8

Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.

Step 9

Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Serve hot with your choice of side such as rice, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.
