LEMON GARLIC CHICKEN

PREP TIME: 15 MINS
·      COOK TIME: 30 MINS

·      TOTAL TIME: 45 MINUTES

·      YIELD: SERVES 4
INGREDIENTS
·      1 TBSP. EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL
·      2 LB. BONELESS, SKINLESS CHICKEN THIGHS (OR WHATEVER CUT OF CHICKEN YOU HAVE ON HAND)
·      SALT AND PEPPER TO TASTE
·      1/2 MEDIUM YELLOW ONION, DICED
·      3 CLOVES GARLIC, DICED
·      5 SPRIGS FRESH THYME
·      1 LARGE LEMON
·      1.5 CUPS CHICKEN STOCK
·      1 CUP FRESH SPINACH, ROUGHLY CHOPPED
INSTRUCTIONS
1.  HEAT OVEN TO 400 DEGREES F.
2.  HEAT OLIVE OIL IN A LARGE, OVEN-SAFE PAN (I LIKE TO USE A WIDE, DEEP SKILLET) OVER MEDIUM HEAT.
3.  SEASON BOTH SIDES OF CHICKEN WITH SALT AND PEPPER TO TASTE.
4.  PLACE CHICKEN THIGHS IN THE HOT PAN AND SEAR FOR 4-5 MINUTES ON EACH SIDE UNTIL GOLDEN BROWN.
5.  REMOVE CHICKEN TO A PLATE AND SET ASIDE, THEN RETURN PAN TO STOVE OVER MEDIUM-HIGH HEAT.
6.  ADD ONION AND GARLIC TO PAN AND SAUTE UNTIL ONION IS TRANSLUCENT AND HAS STARTED TO CARAMELIZE, ABOUT 4 MINUTES. IF PAN IS LOOKING A LITTLE DRY, ADD ANOTHER DRIZZLE OF OLIVE OIL TO HELP THE ONION COOK.
7.  PULL LEAVES OFF OF THYME SPRIGS AND ADD LEAVES TO THE ONIONS, THEN SEASON WITH SALT AND PEPPER.
8.  JUICE THE LEMON, REMOVING ANY SEEDS, AND ADD TO THE ONION MIXTURE. STIR TO COMBINE.
9.  ADD CHICKEN STOCK AND SPINACH TO ONIONS AND STIR TO COMBINE. BRING MIXTURE TO A SIMMER, THEN RETURN SEARED CHICKEN THIGHS TO PAN AND SPOON SOME OF THE BROTH OVER THE TOP OF THEM TO HELP THEM STAY MOIST.
10. PLACE PAN IN 400 DEGREE OVEN, UNCOVERED, AND COOK 15-20 MINUTES MORE UNTIL CHICKEN IS COOKED THROUGH. SERVE IMMEDIATELY.
NOTES
I USED BONELESS, SKINLESS CHICKEN THIGHS BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT THEY HAD AT MY STORE, BUT I GENERALLY PREFER TO USE BONE-IN, SKIN-ON THIGHS BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE THEY HAVE MORE FLAVOR. YOU COULD ALSO USE CHICKEN BREASTS, DRUMSTICKS, OR WHATEVER CUT OF MEAT YOU HAVE ON HAND! JUST KEEP AN EYE ON IT AS IT COOKS, BECAUSE YOU MAY HAVE TO ADJUST THE COOKING TIME DEPENDING ON THE CUT OF THE MEAT.
I USED CHICKEN STOCK AS THE LIQUID IN THIS RECIPE, BUT IT WOULD ALSO BE GREAT WITH WHITE WINE! JUST SUBSTITUTE 1/2 CUP WHITE WINE FOR 1/2 CUP OF THE CHICKEN STOCK.
