SKILLET CHICKEN THIGHS WITH WHITE WINE-BUTTER SAUCE
The stovetop-to-oven cast-iron skillet technique in this recipe is our go-to for achieving crispy, juicy chicken thighs. If you're tight on time, the chicken is delicious without the butter sauce (simply plate the thighs straight out of the oven). But to truly impart restaurant-worthy flavor, try your hand at the classic white wine and butter sauce known as beurre blanc in French. The recipe makes a plentiful amount of sauce; nestle the chicken into some of it, then spoon more over every other component of your dinner.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle them on both sides with 1 1/2 teaspoons each salt and pepper.
- Heat a large oven-proof skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs to the skillet skin-side down and cook, moving them around once or twice to ensure even browning, until the skin is very golden brown, 11 to 12 minutes.
- Turn off the heat. Grasp a wad of paper towels with tongs and mop up excess fat in the bottom of the skillet-this will prevent the grease from spattering all over your oven; carefully discard the paper towel. Repeat several times until there's only a thin film of oil over the bottom of the skillet.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the chicken is almost cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Flip the thighs so they are skin side up, then continue roasting until no longer pink near the bone, another 6 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the chicken thighs to a plate, skin side up. Wipe out the skillet and set aside.
- Meanwhile, start your sauce. Combine the vinegar, wine, shallots, lemon juice and bay leaves in a heavy 2-quart saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until the mixture is reduced to a wet paste, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the cream and continue to simmer until the mixture is reduced to about 2 tablespoons.
- Reduce the heat to low and remove the bay leaves. Add a few chunks of the butter and whisk constantly until melted, then add a few more chunks and whisk again until melted. Continue adding and whisking the butter, which should melt into a creamy emulsion, until all the butter is incorporated, about 4 minutes. Do not let the sauce go over 130 degrees F or it will separate. If the sauce starts to break, remove from the heat, add 2 ice cubes and whisk until it cools down and comes back together.
- Season the sauce with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper. Transfer it to the cast iron skillet, nestle the chicken on top and sprinkle the whole dish with chives. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Season thighs well on both sides with lemon pepper. Place the flour in a shallow dish. Then dredge the chicken in the flour and place on a separate plate.

- Add the onions to the oil and cook, stirring to scrape up any browned bits at the bottom of the pan. Cook for about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, and season with salt and pepper. Cook for another minute or two. Add the wine, lemon juice, and chicken broth. Let mixture simmer for a few minutes. Add the butter and allow it to melt.
- Add the chicken thighs to the sauce. Top with chopped chives. Cover with lid, and place in the middle of the oven. Bake for 20 minutes, remove the lid and cook an additional 20 minutes. Before serving sprinkle with a garnish of fresh chopped chives and the ¼ cup of Parmesan cheese.

Tips:
- Selecting Quality Ingredients: Choose fresh, plump chicken thighs with evenly distributed fat and no signs of bruising or discoloration. Opt for a good-quality cherry wine that is well-balanced and not overly sweet.
- Seasoning the Chicken: Generously season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper before browning. This enhances the natural flavor of the chicken and helps create a flavorful crust.
- Cooking Technique: Pan-searing the chicken thighs over medium-high heat creates a beautiful golden-brown crust while keeping the inside moist and juicy. Use a large skillet to avoid overcrowding and ensure even cooking.
- Deglazing the Pan: After cooking the chicken thighs, remove them from the skillet and set aside. Deglaze the pan with cherry wine, scraping up any browned bits stuck to the bottom. This adds depth of flavor to the sauce.
- Creating the Cherry Wine Sauce: Simmer the cherry wine with chicken broth, balsamic vinegar, honey, and Dijon mustard until it thickens. The combination of these ingredients creates a rich, tangy, and slightly sweet sauce that perfectly complements the chicken.
- Finishing Touches: Once the sauce has thickened, return the chicken thighs to the skillet and let them simmer for a few minutes to absorb the flavors of the sauce. Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley for an extra touch of color and flavor.
Conclusion:
This recipe for chicken thighs with cherry wine sauce is a delightful dish that combines savory and sweet flavors. The tender, juicy chicken thighs are perfectly complemented by the rich, tangy sauce made from cherry wine, chicken broth, balsamic vinegar, honey, and Dijon mustard. This dish is sure to impress your family and friends and is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner.
