Ingredients
- 4 chicken thighs, skin-on and bone-in
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil. Season chicken thighs with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Place them skin-side down in the skillet and sear for about 5-7 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip and cook for another 5 minutes.
- Make the Cream Sauce: Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits. Stir in heavy cream and Italian seasoning. Bring to a gentle simmer.
- Combine: Return the chicken thighs to the skillet, skin-side up. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot, ideally with low-carb sides.
