Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 thigh, bone and skin removeds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
½ onion, cut in 1/2-inch thick slices
1 teaspoon minced garlic
½ cup dry white wine
3 tablespoons water, divided
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Blot chicken thighs with paper towels and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Melt butter with olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Place chicken thighs in the hot oil and cook until browned, about 4 minutes per side. Remove chicken from the skillet and keep warm.
  • Add carrots, onion, and minced garlic to the same skillet, stirring to coat with pan drippings. Season with salt and pepper and cook for about 2 minutes. Nestle browned chicken thighs into the vegetables, pour wine and 2 tablespoons water over everything, and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  • Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until carrots are fork-tender and chicken juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken and vegetables from the skillet with a slotted spoon.
  • Combine cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl, stirring to dissolve any lumps. Add slurry to the drippings in the skillet and bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Pour sauce over chicken pieces and vegetables and sprinkle with fresh parsley to serve.
