Description

Creamy Garlic Mushroom Chicken Thighs Golden, juicy boneless thighs are smothered in a silky garlic mushroom cream sauce that’s gluten-free, restaurant-worthy, and perfect for weeknights. Sautéed mushrooms, thyme, and parmesan build deep, savory flavor, while the rich sauce clings to every bite. Easy, comforting, and crowd-pleasing, it pairs brilliantly with greens or crusty bread. Make ahead, reheat well, and enjoy leftovers the next day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • ½ tsp salt, or to taste
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Season chicken thighs on both sides with salt and black pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken thighs and sear for 5–6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from pan and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, melt butter and add sliced mushrooms. Cook for 4–5 minutes until softened and lightly browned.
  4. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Pour in chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Simmer for 3–4 minutes.
  6. Stir in heavy cream, parmesan cheese, and dried thyme. Let sauce simmer for 5–7 minutes until thickened.
  7. Return chicken thighs to the skillet and spoon sauce over the top. Simmer for 5 more minutes.
  8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Notes

  • Gluten-free dish: ensure all ingredients (broth, parmesan) are labeled gluten-free.
  • If the sauce thickens too quickly, add a splash more chicken broth or cream to reach desired consistency.
  • Leftovers reheat well on the stovetop or in the microwave; pair with greens or crusty bread for a complete meal.
