under 30 minutes
ingredients
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon oil
4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
2 teaspoons seasoned salt, or to taste
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
2 cloves garlic minced
chopped fresh parsley
directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Heat a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper toweling and sprinkle all sides with the seasoned salt.
Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and all the oil to the skillet. Turn the skillet to coat the bottom in the butter mixture.
Add the chicken to the skillet, skin-side down. Pan-sear for 5-7 minutes, without turning the chicken, until the skin is crisp and browned.
Turn the chicken thighs over and add the mushrooms and garlic around the chicken. Drizzle the chicken and mushrooms with the remaining butter.
Place the skillet in the oven and cook for 8-10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Sprinkle the pan-seared chicken thighs with parsley before serving.
common recipe questions
Can I use this recipe for other pieces of chicken than just chicken thighs?
Yes, just make sure to cook the chicken to the proper internal temperature (adjusting the cooking time as needed). Dark meat should be cooked to 180 degrees F, white meat should be cooked to 165 degrees F.
