Directions

Prep 10 minCook 45 min
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, skin-side down, and sear both sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the skillet. Add garlic and red pepper flakes, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Stir in chicken broth, heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, Parmesan, thyme, oregano, and dried basil. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened, about 3-5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Return the chicken to the skillet. Place in the oven and roast until completely cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F, about 25-30 minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve immediately, garnished with fresh basil leaves, if desired.
