Cooking Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    Pat the bone-in chicken thighs dry with a paper towel. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  2. 2

    Mince the Garlic

    Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Chop the Rosemary

    Finely chop the fresh rosemary leaves and set aside.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  2. 5

    Sear the Chicken

    Add the seasoned chicken thighs to the skillet, skin side down. Sear for about 5-7 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden brown. Flip the chicken and cook for an additional 5 minutes.

  3. 6

    Add Garlic and Rosemary

    Add the minced garlic and chopped rosemary to the skillet, stirring them around the chicken for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  4. 7

    Deglaze with Chicken Broth

    Pour in the chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to release any browned bits. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

  5. 8

    Finish Cooking

    Reduce heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the chicken cook for an additional 15-20 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

  6. 9

    Serve

    Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Spoon some of the pan juices over the chicken for added flavor.
