INGREDIENTS

8 oz boneless skinless chicken thighs

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1.5 cups cremini mushrooms

2 cloves garlic

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp fresh thyme leaves

1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

PREPARATION

• 1

  Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.

• 2

  Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

• 3

  Place the chicken thighs in the skillet, smooth side down, and sear for 5-7 minutes until a golden-brown crust forms.

• 4

  Flip the chicken and cook for another 5-6 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, then remove from the pan and set aside.

• 5

  In the same skillet, add the sliced cremini mushrooms, stirring occasionally until they release their moisture and turn a deep brown.

• 6

  Stir in the minced garlic and fresh thyme leaves, sautéing for 1 minute until the fragrance is released.

• 7

  Pour in the balsamic vinegar to deglaze the pan, scraping up any flavorful browned bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon.

• 8

  Return the chicken thighs to the pan, tossing briefly with the mushrooms to coat before serving.
