GARLIC MUSHROOM CHICKEN THIGHS
Garlic Mushroom chicken thighs have the most delicious garlic butter mushrooms. A weeknight dinner the whole family will love.
Ingredients
1-1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 6 large thighs)
1 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (I used 1/4 tsp cayenne instead)
2 tablespoons olive oil or coconut oil
8 ounces sliced mushrooms (I use cremini)
1 shallot, thinly sliced (optional)
3 tablespoons butter
4 cloves garlic minced
Instructions
In a small bowl combine the onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes OR cayenne.
Pat chicken thighs dry with a paper towel. Sprinkle seasoning over the chicken evenly.
Heat oil in a skillet on medium-high heat. Place the chicken in a hot skillet (I use cast iron) and sear for about 7-8 minutes. Flip and cook another 7-8 minutes or until chicken is 165 degrees and juices run clear. Remove chicken to a plate and keep warm.
Add the butter to the skillet, mushrooms and shallot if using one, season with salt and pepper and saute for about 3 minutes. Add in the garlic and cook until fragrant for about another minute.
Return the chicken to the pan and garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
Charlene’s notes 1-26-2023: This was excellent! Definitely will be made again. I added a shallot to it because I had one that needed to be used.
