Ingredients
  

  • 3 pounds bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion 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 fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, and paprika. Mix well to create a marinade.
  3. Add the chicken thighs to the bowl and coat them thoroughly with the marinade. Let them sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  4. Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken thighs, skin side down. Sear for about 5-7 minutes until the skin is golden brown.
  5. Flip the chicken thighs over and pour in the white wine and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer.
  6. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  7. Carefully remove the skillet from the oven. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
  8. Place the skillet back on the stove over medium heat. Stir in the heavy cream and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
  9. Return the chicken to the skillet, spoon some sauce over the top, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
