For the Chicken
  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
For the Sauce
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms sliced

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper.

  5. Pour in heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
