Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the black truffle oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken, skin-side down, and sear until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Aromatics

    Flip the chicken and add minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, and fresh thyme to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Potatoes

    In a separate bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange them around the chicken in the skillet.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Pour the chicken broth into the skillet. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are crispy.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes. Serve the chicken and potatoes hot, drizzled with additional black truffle oil if desired.
