Directions

Prep 5 minCook 20 min

1
Heat a heavy pan over medium-high heat and add half of the butter, swirling to melt.
2
Once the butter is foamy, add the chicken thighs and lightly salt them. Cook for 5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
3
Remove the chicken from the pan, keeping the grease in the pan. Add the garlic and stir well.
4
Add mushrooms, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Add the remaining butter and let it melt.
5
Brown the garlic and mushrooms for 4-6 minutes, reducing heat if necessary. Add red pepper flakes and cilantro.
6
Pour in chicken broth, lemon juice, and Parmesan cheese. Stir well, scraping up browned bits from the pan.
7
Bring to a boil and let the sauce reduce slightly for 2 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan.
8
Let the sauce reduce for another 5-8 minutes, flipping the chicken occasionally, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Serve immediately.
