Instructions
Creating Easy Bobby Flay Chicken Thighs with Creamy Garlic Sauce is a breeze with these steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Chicken: Rinse and pat dry chicken thighs. Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. Heat Olive Oil: In an oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
4. Sear Chicken: Place chicken thighs skin-side down in the skillet. Sear for about 5-7 minutes until the skin is golden brown. Flip and sear the other side for another 5 minutes.
5. Remove Chicken: Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
6. Sauté Garlic: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
7. Add Liquid Ingredients: Stir in the heavy cream and Dijon mustard into the skillet, mixing well. Then, add dried thyme for an aromatic flavor.
8. Return Chicken: Place the chicken thighs back into the skillet, skin-side up, allowing the creamy garlic sauce to coat them.
9. Bake: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
10. Garnish: Once out of the oven, sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving for a pop of color.
Following these simple steps will lead you to a delicious, creamy chicken dish that embodies flavors and fragrances guaranteed to thrill your palate.
