How to Make Garlic Roasted Chicken Thighs:

This meal will make your family and friends think you slaved over the kitchen for hours but can be ready in a flash for busy working families. Just follow the 8 easy steps below:

First Step: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees

Second Step: Turn stove to medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to a skillet

Third Step: Add chicken thighs, skin side down, to hot skillet. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Sear the chicken thighs on each side, approximately 3-4 minutes each. They should be browned. Remove from skillet.

Once the skillet is hot, add the chicken thighs skin side down, top with salt and pepper to taste. Sear the chicken thighs for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are browned then remove them from the skillet

Fourth Step: Sauté garlic and chopped onion in the same skillet, after removing chicken, for 2-3 minutes or until onions are soft and brown.

Fifth Step: Stir 1 teaspoon of thyme with the garlic and onion, until fragrant. Add 1 cup of bone broth, then whisk in 3 tablespoons of heavy whipping cream.

Sixth Step: Add in ⅔ cup of parmesan cheese. You can use shredded or grated. Grated parmesan will allow the cheese to mix more easily with the sauce. Shredded parmesan should be added little by little, whisking quickly to combine.

Seventh Step: Return chicken thighs to the skillet. Put skillet in your preheated oven and cook for 15-20 minutes, until chicken thighs are cooked through

Eighth and Final Step: Spoon the sauce over top of the chicken thighs and serve topped with fresh parmesan or herbs.

Bon appetite! Now you can wow your family and friends with this fabulous meal in less than an hour. Simple but elegant to serve for any occasion. The sauce is just SO good!

Can you substitute thighs with other types of chicken in this chicken recipe?

Yes, you can substitute chicken breast with skin on for the thighs if you are more of a white meat lover. Choosing breast with the skin on instead of skinless will make for a more flavorful dish.

Can these Garlic Parmesan Chicken Thighs be prepped ahead of time and baked later?

Yes, this recipe is perfect for the pre-cook and freeze options for later. You can stop at step six and add garlic roasted chicken and sauce together and store in refrigerator or freezer for later. Perfect meals anytime, even busy weeknights!

What can I serve with my chicken thighs?

A few of my favorite side dishes to serve with these Garlic Roasted Chicken Thighs are garlic butter mushrooms, herb-roasted cauliflower, or cheesy oven roaster broccoli. But for something a little more traditional you can make mashed cauliflower and you will swear it is mash potatoes or just plain steamed carrots.

Now, remember to save this recipe on Pinterest for later 🙂
