DELICIOUS CHICKEN THIGHS

by Pam Simon September 02, 2026

Ingredients:

6 skin on boneless chicken thighs

Olive oil

2 garlic cloves sliced thin

Sauce:

1/2 cup chicken broth

1/3 cup balsamic vinegar

2 tbspn good real maple syrup

Salt and pepper to taste

If you cannot find boneless and you do not want to remove bone, use bone in thighs. Just cook a few minutes more.

Make sauce: Whisk together all the ingredients and set aside.

In a cast iron skillet heat olive oil until shimmering. Add chicken, skin side down and cook until golden, 5-7 minutes. Turn chicken and cook for another 5 minutes.

Remove chicken from pan to a plate and place garlic in pan. Cook for 1 minute and add sauce. Bring sauce to a boil. Reduce heat and place chicken back in pan. Spoon sauce over thighs.

Place the skillet in a preheated 350 degrees oven for 5-7 minutes. Keep an eye on chicken, the skin will brown quickly. Enjoy!

I place chicken on rice, orzo, farro, or quinoa with sauce on top.
