Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 pounds chicken thighs
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 4 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 0.5 white onion diced (about 1 cup)
  • 8 ounces sliced white mushrooms
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 0.5 cup heavy whipping cream

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a large skillet or pan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Once the butter has completely melted, add the chicken thighs. Cook the thighs for about 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
  2. Remove the chicken from the pan. Add the flour and spices to the pan and stir quickly to combine.
  3. Add the mushrooms and diced onion. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the veggies are soft.
  4. Pour the chicken broth and cream into the pan and whisk thoroughly, ensuring there are no lumps in the mixture. Place the chicken back into the pan and reduce the stove to a medium heat.
  5. Allow the chicken to finish cooking as the sauce thickens (about 20-25 minutes). Ensure that the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  6. Serve and enjoy!
