Cuisine: American
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 30 to 35 minutes
Total Time: 35 to 40 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 - 6 chicken bone-in chicken pieces (thighs and legs work well)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or 2 tablespoons butter (or a combination)
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup white wine
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (rosemary, parsley, rosemary, thyme, etc.)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Here's how to make it:
- Heat the olive oil in an ovenproof skillet. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and cook in the hot oil until golden brown on both sides, about 5 to 6 minutes. Remove to a plate. (The chicken is not cooked through at this point.)
- Add the garlic to the skillet and cook 30 seconds. Add the wine and cook about 2 minutes over high heat. Reduce heat and add the herbs and cream. Season with salt and pepper. Put the chicken back into the pan, skin side up. (If you don't have an ovenproof skillet, simply put the chicken and sauce into a baking dish. If you don't have fresh herbs, you could use dried herbs. Always use less dried herbs vs. fresh.)
- Bake in a preheated 400-degree F oven for about 20 to 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through (165 degrees F internal temperature). Pour the sauce into a bowl and serve on the side, if desired. Store any leftover chicken in an airtight container in the fridge.
