Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 1.5 tablespoons avocado oil
- kosher salt
- cracked black pepper
- 1–2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup yellow onion, diced small
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup chicken bone broth
- ¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped, drained
- 2–3 ounces baby spinach
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Step 1: Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel and season them with kosher salt and cracked black pepper.
- Step 2: Heat a skillet over medium high heat. Add the avocado oil. Once the oil is hot but not smoking, add the chicken thighs smooth side down. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 5-6 minutes, once they easily release from the pan you can flip them. Do not move the thighs around in the pan, they will not sear properly. Cook for another 5-6 minutes on the other side. Remove the thighs from the pan and place them on a plate.
- Step 3: In the same pan, add the butter, diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes or until fragrant. Add the cherry tomatoes and season everything with kosher salt and cracked black pepper. Once the tomatoes begin to blister, deglaze the pan with the chicken bone broth. Be sure to scrape up any bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir well.
- Step 4: Let the sauce reduce by ¼, then add the roughly chopped sun-dried tomatoes and baby spinach. Sauté until the spinach begins to wilt. Next, add the heavy cream and grated parmesan cheese. Stir well. Once combined, nestle the chicken thighs and juices back into the pan. Simmer until the chicken is warmed through. Serve hot and enjoy.
