Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by heating a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drizzle in the oil from your sun-dried tomato jar, allowing it to warm for about 1-2 minutes until shimmering.
  2. While the oil heats, generously season your chicken thighs with kosher salt, black pepper, and Italian herbs. Carefully place them in the hot skillet, browning them for 4-5 minutes on each side.
  3. Once browned, remove the chicken thighs from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  4. In the same skillet, pour in the white wine and add the heavy cream along with the dried onion flakes. Stir gently and let this simmer for about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Mix in the sun-dried tomatoes and peeled garlic cloves, allowing the sauce to gently simmer for about 5 minutes.
  6. Bring back your chicken, nestling it in the creamy sauce, and let it cook for an additional 10 minutes to absorb flavors.
  7. Remove the skillet from heat and serve your Creamy Garlic Chicken Thighs hot, garnished with black pepper and parsley.
