Minutes to Prepare: 10

Minutes to Cook: 30

Ingredients

8 bone-in skinless chicken thighs (about 2 3/4 pounds) (I used boneless)

Coarse salt and ground pepper

4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced

1 cup dry white wine

1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

1 lemon, cut into 8 thin slices, plus 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 tablespoon cold butter, cut into pieces

Directions

1. In a 12-inch skillet with a tight-fitting lid, arrange thighs, bone side up; season with salt and pepper. Add garlic, wine, and thyme. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook, 30 minutes. (I reduced the overall cooking time for this recipe by 10-15 minutes since I was using boneless chicken thighs.)

2. Turn chicken over. Place a lemon slice on each piece; cover and continue simmering until tender, about 15 minutes. Leaving garlic and liquid in skillet, transfer chicken and lemon slices to a platter. Cover tightly with foil to keep warm.

3. Bring liquid in skillet to a boil; cook until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Add butter, parsley, and lemon juice; stir until butter has softened and sauce is smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Serve chicken with sauce and, if desired, rice.
