Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a braising pan, cast iron skillet, or Dutch oven over medium heat, melt the butter. Season both sides of your chicken thighs with salt, pepper, and garlic powder and set aside.
- Place the chicken thighs in the skillet or Dutch oven, skin side down, and cook for 6-7 minutes until golden. Use tongs to remove from the pan and set aside.
- Add the onion, potatoes, carrots, thyme, wine, and chicken broth making sure to use a spatula to scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Nestle the chicken thighs back into the pan (or Dutch oven) skin side up, ensuring that the liquid comes about half to ¾ of the way up the chicken.
- Cover with a lid or foil and transfer to the oven preheated to 400 degrees F. and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the chicken has reached 165° and the carrots and potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
- Remove the chicken and vegetables to a serving platter and discard the thyme sprigs. Remove 1 cup of the broth that’s left behind and whisk together with the cornstarch.
- Pour the cornstarch mixture back into the pan and whisk well until the sauce has slightly thickened. Serve the sauce with the chicken and garnish with lemon slices.
