Description

A comforting dish featuring tender chicken thighs and a rich, savory gravy, perfect for family gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken thighs
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: Parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sauté until softened.
  2. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper and add them to the skillet. Brown the chicken on both sides, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  3. Sprinkle flour over the chicken and stir to coat. Gradually add chicken broth, stirring constantly until well combined.
  4. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat. Cover and cook for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
  5. Stir in the milk and let the gravy thicken for a few minutes.
  6. Serve the chicken with gravy over mashed potatoes or rice, garnished with parsley if desired.

Notes

Let chicken thighs rest before cooking for juicier meat. Feel free to add vegetables like carrots or peas during cooking for added nutrition.
