Instructions

  1. 1

    Season chicken thighs generously with salt, pepper, and paprika. Heat olive oil in a large, deep skillet over high heat. Place chicken skin-side down and sear undisturbed for 6–7 minutes until the skin is deeply golden and releases easily from the pan. Flip and cook 3 more minutes. Remove and set aside.

  2. 2

    In the rendered fat over medium-low heat, add the sliced garlic and cook slowly, stirring often, for 4–5 minutes until golden and fragrant — do not let it burn, which would make the dish bitter.

  3. 3

    Add thyme, red pepper flakes, wine, and broth. Bring to a simmer, scraping up the browned bits. Return the chicken to the pan, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the garlic-wine sauce has reduced and concentrated.

  4. 4

    Taste the sauce for salt. Finish with fresh parsley. Serve with crusty bread to soak up the intensely garlic-flavored pan sauce.
