  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon crushed dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper
  • 8 boneless skinless chicken thighs, trimmed

  1. Prepare the Little potatoes according to the package directions. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the oregano, rosemary thyme, salt and pepper.
  3. Place the chicken thighs in a bowl, sprinkle the oregano mixture over the chicken and toss to coat.
  4. Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large nonstick or ceramic skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate.
  5. Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil. Add the onion and cook until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  6. Add the chicken broth to the skillet and bring to a boil, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
