Main Ingredients

  • 8 pieces Chicken thighs skin-on, bone-in
  • 1 cup Heavy cream
  • 1 cup Chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder

Instructions 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Season the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken thighs, skin-side down, until the skin is crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Flip and cook for another 5 minutes.
