SNAPPY SMOTHERED CHICKEN
Smothered chicken is a real-deal Southern staple. Cheap, hearty, and delicious, it's graced our dinner tables for decades past, always offering a welcome taste of nostalgia. There's just something about tender, budget-friendly chicken breast generously coated in a warm, buttery sauce that feels both comforting and indulgent.nAt the core, smothered anything is about enhancing the main ingredient with a bevy of spices and a few creamy additions. Between all the brilliant vehicles for a smothering gravy, like pork chops and cube steak, chicken is a Southerner's bread and butter: the original. In this smothered chicken recipe, a savory sauce of paprika, thyme, garlic, butter, and cream of mushroom soup (speckled with tender onions and mushrooms) takes a classic dinner to new heights. We dressed it up even more with a splash of white wine, which can be omitted by increasing the milk to 1 1/3 cups. Learn how to make smothered chicken tonight, and you'll be ready to serve this easy recipe at Sunday dinner with wide egg noodles, or rice. Get ready to receive rave family-favorite reviews.

Steps:
- Prep the oven and baking sheet. Preheat the oven to 350°F degrees. Place a rack over a baking sheet.
- Make the spice rub. In a small bowl, whisk together the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning and chili powder.
- Prep the chicken. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Generously season the chicken thighs with about ¾ of the seasoning rub. Place the seasoned chicken on the prepared baking sheet.
- Prep the dredge. Season the flour with remaining seasoning rub, salt and pepper. Transfer 2 tablespoons of the seasoned flour to a smaller bowl.
- Dredge the chicken thighs. Dredge the chicken thighs through the flour mixture making sure they are fully coated. Shake off any excess flour. Place the thighs back on the rack and repeat with remaining chicken thighs.
- Pan sear the chicken. Heat the olive oil in a large oven safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes per side until browned. The chicken won't be fully cooked at this point. Transfer the chicken back to the rack.
- Cook the onion and garlic. In the same skillet add the butter, onion and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until aromatic. Stir in the red pepper flakes.
- Sprinkle flour. Sprinkle the reserved seasoned flour over the onions and continue cooking while stirring for another 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
- Make the gravy. Start pouring chicken broth while continuously whisking and cook for a couple more minutes until the gravy comes to a simmer. Whisk in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Taste for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper as needed.
- Add chicken and braise in the oven. Add the chicken back to the skillet and spoon some of the gravy over the chicken. Cover the skillet and transfer it to the oven. Cook in the oven for one hour.
- Garnish and serve. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve over mashed potatoes or rice.

SOUTHWEST CHICKEN
I discovered this recipe one Sunday afternoon in the WW magazine when I was looking to find a different way to prepare chicken. This recipe is very easy and very tasty. I served it with rice and green beans. The chicken can be cooked immediately after using the rub, but for a more intense flavor, marinate for a couple of hours in the fridge or overnight.This chicken has a sweet and spicy flavor and can be served with a squeeze of fresh lime.
