Ingredients
Scale
4 pieces of chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
1 cup of dry white wine
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tablespoon of fresh thyme, chopped
2 tablespoons of butter
1 large onion, diced
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Zest of 1 lemon
Instructions
Start by rinsing your chicken thighs under cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels to ensure a crispy skin. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Once melted and bubbling, add the chicken thighs skin-side down. Sear for about 5-7 minutes until the skin is golden brown. Flip the chicken and sear for another 5 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside on a plate. In the same skillet, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook off.
Add the chicken thighs back to the skillet, skin-side up. Sprinkle fresh thyme and lemon zest over the top. Cover the skillet and transfer it to a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) to bake for 45 minutes.
After baking, uncover the skillet and broil for an additional 5 minutes for extra crispiness. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
