Cooking Instructions
Sauté the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook until golden brown on both sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Deglaze with Wine
Pour in the white wine and scrape the bottom of the skillet to release any browned bits. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced.
Combine Ingredients
Return the chicken to the skillet and pour in the chicken broth. Add the chopped thyme. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
Add Cream
Once the chicken is cooked, stir in the heavy cream and let it simmer for another 5 minutes to thicken the sauce. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Serve
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot with rice or crusty bread.
