Stove Top Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs Food

SKILLET CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Trim off any excess fat from the thighs.
• In a small bowl, mix spices and sprinkle over chicken. Rub into the meat. Flip and repeat on the other side.
• Heat up oil in a skillet. Add butter and let it melt.
• Cook chicken thighs, 3 to 4 at a time, not to crowd the pan. Cook 5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook 5 to 7 minutes on the other side, until golden brown.
• Always check with the meat thermometer. It should show at least 165 degrees F in the thickest part of each thigh.
• Remove thighs from pan and let them sit on a plate for a few minutes, so the juices can redistribute inside.

EASY ONE-SKILLET CHICKEN THIGHS WITH CARROTS

Steps:

• Blot chicken thighs with paper towels and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Melt butter with olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Place chicken thighs in the hot oil and cook until browned, about 4 minutes per side. Remove chicken from the skillet and keep warm.
• Add carrots, onion, and minced garlic to the same skillet, stirring to coat with pan drippings. Season with salt and pepper and cook for about 2 minutes. Nestle browned chicken thighs into the vegetables, pour wine and 2 tablespoons water over everything, and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
• Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until carrots are fork-tender and chicken juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken and vegetables from the skillet with a slotted spoon.
• Combine cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl, stirring to dissolve any lumps. Add slurry to the drippings in the skillet and bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Pour sauce over chicken pieces and vegetables and sprinkle with fresh parsley to serve.
