  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Sweet paprika to taste
  • Dried Italian herbs to taste
  • Olive oil for sautéing
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons fresh garlic, finely minced
  • 120 millilitres chicken broth

Instructions

  1. Generously season both sides of the chicken thighs with onion powder, garlic powder, Cajun seasoning, black pepper, paprika, and Italian herbs.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken thighs for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer chicken to a separate baking dish.
  3. Using the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for approximately 3 minutes or until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth, sun dried tomatoes, and heavy whipping cream. Stir to combine then add dry white wine. Season with additional salt, pepper, and Italian herbs. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring steadily.
  5. Gradually sprinkle in the grated Parmesan or Italian cheese, whisking constantly to ensure a smooth, cohesive sauce.
  6. Pour the finished sauce evenly over the seared chicken thighs in the baking dish. Place in a preheated oven at 200°C and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and tender.
  7. Remove chicken from oven and serve with the pan sauce over a base of mashed potatoes or side of choice.
