Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Put the garlic in a small saucepan covered with water and boil for a minute.
- Remove the garlic and dry on a paper towel.
- Dry the chicken thighs with a paper towel, the drier the skin, the better it will brown.
- Season your chicken with salt and pepper to taste (I use about a teaspoon of kosher salt and a 1/2 teaspoon of fresh ground black pepper).
- In a cast iron skillet or your favorite frying pan add two tablespoons of butter and add half of the chicken skin side down on medium high.
- Cook for 3-5 minutes on each side or until well browned and remove from the pan.
- Cook the second half of the chicken the same way then remove to a plate.
- Add the garlic cloves to the pan and on low cook for 5-7 minutes, until golden brown.
- Add the wine and scrape up any browned chicken bits on the bottom of the pan.
- Add the chicken back to the pan add the fresh thyme.
- Cover the pan with foil tightly and put in the oven for 30 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven, and take the chicken out of the pan (I usually put it on a plate and cover it with the foil I used to cover the pan when baking.
- Mix the cream and flour together and add to the pan, cooking on medium high until it boils and thickens.
- Season again with salt and pepper if needed.
- Remove the stalks of thyme.
- Add the chicken back to the pan and serve immediately.
- Serve with some amazing mashed potatoes.
