Ingrediënten

8 bone-in (skin-on chicken thighs)

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

3 tablespoons unsalted butter (divided)

3 cloves garlic (minced)

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more, to taste)

1 cup chicken broth

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/3 cup julienned sun dried tomatoes in olive oil (drained)

1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan

1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

1/4 cup basil leaves (chiffonade)

Instructies

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper, to taste.

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large oven-proof skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken, skin-side down, and sear both sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side; set aside.

Melt remaining tablespoon butter in the skillet. Add garlic and red pepper flakes, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in chicken broth, heavy cream, sun dried tomatoes, Parmesan, thyme, oregano and basil.

Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened, about 3-5 minutes. Return chicken to the skillet.

Place into oven and roast until completely cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 175 degrees F, about 25-30 minutes.

Serve immediately, garnished with basil, if desired.
