Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Gather all ingredients and equipment.
  2. Pat the chicken thighs dry and season each with salt, pepper, rosemary, and thyme.
  3. In the skillet, add olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken skin-side down for 5-7 minutes, then flip and cook for 3-4 minutes.
  4. Remove the chicken and add onions and garlic to the skillet, stirring for 2-3 minutes until softened. Then add mushrooms and potatoes, cooking for about 5 minutes.
  5. Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring well. Bring to a simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  6. Nestle the chicken thighs back into the skillet, skin side up. Ensure they're partially submerged in sauce.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender.
  8. Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
