Chicken thighs simmered in creamy lemon broth! Scoop ricotta on top.

I used lemon preserve in this but if you don’t have, squeezed lemon should work well. I’d add 1/2 squeezed lemon. I like this recipe bc the sauce is just the right amount of creamy (not too heavy) and the lemon brightens it up!

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 chicken thighs
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp rosemary
  • 1.5 cups chicken stock
  • 1 tbsp lemon preserve
  • 1/4 cup half and half (or cream)

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Place large skillet over high heat. Add butter. Sear chicken thighs 3 min per side to brown. Remove.
  • Add garlic, lemon preserve and broth. Scrape brown bits. Add half and half or heavy cream. Bring to simmer,
  • Add chicken thighs and cover. Cook until cooked through, about 10-15 min.
  • Remove thighs and keep simmering to reduce liquid until desired taste. Pour over thighs. Add scoop of ricotta if have on hand! Add some chopped parsley.
