How to make Herb Roasted Chicken Thighs in Creamy White Wine Sauce
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 400 degrees F.
Step 2: In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium-high heat. While the oil is heating, sprinkle the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Step 3: Once the oil is hot, add the chicken thighs to the skillet skin-side-down and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes until no longer pink. Flip the chicken and continue to cook the other side for additional 4 minutes. Set the chicken aside when done.
Step 4: To the same skillet, add 2 tbsp butter and onion, Saute for about 3 to 4 minutes until the onion is brown. Add the chopped garlic along with the thyme and 1 tsp Italian seasoning. Continue to cook for a minute more.
Step 5: Add 1 tbsp flour to the skillet and cook in the oil for only 1 minute until no longer white. Slowly pour in the wine, adjust the heat to medium-high to high heat, cooking for a couple of minutes.
Step 6: Pour the chicken stock into the pan followed by the heavy cream. Whisk well and cook for additional 5 minutes until the mixture has reduced a little. To taste, season with salt and pepper.

Step 8: Remove from the oven when done and serve the dish right away garnished with some fresh thyme. Enjoy roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
