Cuisine: American
Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 4 chicken thighs - bone-in, skin-on
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes julienned
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup parmegiano reggiano fresh grated
  • 1 Tbsp basil julienned
  • olive oil
  • salt
  • pepper

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 400F. Pre-heat a skillet or small roasting pan while you are at it. A hot pan will keep the chicken from sticking.
  • Rub the chicken thighs with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Place chicken in the pre-heated pan. Return the pan to the oven and roast the chicken to an internal temperature of 170F, about 30 minutes.
  • Remove chicken and spoon off all but one Tbsp of visible fat, being careful not to spoon off any brown fond (those brown bits and juices in the pan).
  • Place skillet over medium-low heat.
  • Add garlic and stir. Cook garlic about 20 seconds.
  • Add sun-dried tomatoes and cook another 10 seconds.
  • Raise heat to medium high and add a splash of chicken stock. Stir constantly, scraping up the brown bits to dissolve.
  • Add remaining stock and bring to a simmer.
  • Add heavy cream and warm until the sauce begins to simmer.
  • Stir in the parmesan and remove from heat.
  • Spoon sauce over and around chicken thighs, garnish with basil and serve.
