Ingredients
- 8 chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
- salt and pepper to taste
For the sauce
- 1 tbsp butter
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1 cup white wine / chicken stock
- 1 cup heavy / whipping cream
- 1-2 tsp fresh lemon juice to taste
- ½ cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp parsley finely chopped
Instructions
- Season the chicken thighs generously with salt and pepper.
- Add the chicken thighs, skin-side down into a large, deep pan then place over medium-high heat. Allow to cook for 7-10 minutes until the skin is crisp and deeply golden. Flip the thighs over and cook for another 7-10 minutes until the chicken thighs are fully cooked. The thighs are done when the meat is white through to the bone or the temperature reads 75°C/165°F on a meat thermometer. Remove the thighs from the pan and set aside.
- Add the butter, garlic and thyme to the pan and cook for 30 seconds. Add the wine or stock and using a wooden spoon, scrape the sticky bits from the bottom of the pan. Pour in the cream and lemon juice.
- Allow the sauce to simmer for 5 minutes or until it coats the back of a spoon easily. Add the Parmesan cheese, stir in then add the chicken thighs. Allow to simmer for 5 minutes then sprinkle with parsley and serve.
