Ingredients
  

  • 4 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs (about 1.5 pounds)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 cup white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  2. In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  3. Season the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, garlic powder, thyme, rosemary, and paprika.
  4. Place the chicken thighs skin-side down in the skillet and sear for about 5-7 minutes until the skin is golden brown.
  5. Flip the chicken and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
  6. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  7. In the same skillet, pour in the white wine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes.
  8. Add the chicken broth, heavy cream, and Dijon mustard, stirring to combine.
  9. Return the chicken thighs to the skillet, skin-side up.
  10. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  11. Once cooked, remove the skillet from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  12. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
