Instructions
- Pat chicken thighs dry with a paper towel and trim off excess fat. Combine the onion powder, garlic powder, herbs, salt, pepper and paprika. Coat the chicken evenly with the combined seasoning.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pan or skillet over medium-high heat and sear chicken thighs in batches until browned on each side and no longer pink in the center (about 8 minutes on each side, depending on thickness). Add the remaining oil to cook the second batch. Transfer to a plate; set aside and keep warm.
- In the same pan, melt the butter and add the mushrooms. Cook until soft (about 3 minutes). Add the garlic, parsley, thyme, and rosemary; sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute). Add in the wine or stock and let simmer to reduce to half.
- Return the chicken to the pan. Taste test and season with salt and pepper to your taste. Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
Notes
- *You CAN use fresh herbs if you have them! 2 teaspoons each of fresh herbs is fine. If you don't like thyme or rosemary, substitute with basil and oregano, or use tarragon.
- Optional: Add in an extra ¼ cup of chicken broth for extra sauce.
