Instructions

  1. Step 1: Pat chicken thighs dry and season with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Dredge in flour, shaking off excess.
  2. Step 2: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, skin-side down, and cook 5-6 minutes until golden, then flip and cook 4 minutes more. Remove chicken and set aside.
  3. Step 3: Add thyme and garlic to skillet, sautéing 1 minute until fragrant. Squeeze lemon juice from half the lemon into skillet, then add broth and simmer 3 minutes until slightly reduced.
  4. Step 4: Return chicken to skillet, nestling into sauce. Simmer uncovered 10 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F. Stir in butter and chopped parsley, then serve.
