Ingredients
- 4 tbsp butter divided
- ⅛ tsp sea salt
- 4 chicken thighs bones removed (skinless or with skin OK)
- 6-10 cloves garlic sliced in half or finely diced (I like big chunks of garlic but realize most don't)
- 8 oz cremini mushrooms stems removed and wiped clean
- 1 cup chicken stock
- 1 pinch to 1 tsp red pepper flakes depending on your desired spicy level
- ½ cup diced parsley optional
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese
Instructions
- Heat a heavy pan on medium high until very hot.
- Add 2 tbsp butter, swirl around pan, and let melt.
- When butter is foamy and melted, add chicken thighs.
- Very lightly salt chicken thighs (ONE pinch for all things - don't overdo it!)
- Cook chicken thighs 5 minutes on each side, until lovely golden brown.
- When chicken thighs are well browned, remove from pan - do not drain pan grease.
- Add garlic to pan, stir well.
- Add mushrooms to pan, stirring occasionally to keep mushrooms and garlic from burning.
- Add second half of butter (2 tbsp) to pan, let melt.
- Let garlic and mushrooms brown - about 4-6 minutes. Do not let garlic burn, reduce heat if needed.
- Add red pepper flakes (add slowly according to your taste) and parsley when chicken and mushrooms are lovely golden browned.
- Add stock and cheese.
- Stir well, being sure to scrape up any browned bits from bottom of pan.
- Turn heat off. Whisk in cream until well mixed.
- Return heat and let cream sauce slowly boil and reduce to get creamy and thick.
- Add chicken thighs back to pan, let sauce reduce another 5-8 minutes, flipping chicken occasionally, until thick and chicken thighs are 165 internal temp.
- Remove from pan and serve immediately!
