Ingredients

  • 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 4 tbsp butter divided
  • 1 cup heavy cream

SPICE MIX

  • 3 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp white pepper don't substitute--it's essential for the flavor

Instructions

  • Mix all the spice ingredients together--remove and reserve 1 tsp for the sauce.
  • Place chicken in a large bowl and sprinkle the spice mixture over the chicken. Mix the chicken and spice mix with your hands so each piece is well coated.
  • Melt 2 tbs butter in a large skillet over medium heat until it sizzles (don't let it brown)
  • Add half of the chicken and brown well on each side. Remove from pan and melt the remaining butter and brown the remaining half of the chicken.
  • Add all the chicken back to the skillet, cover and reduce heat to low and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until juices run clear from the chicken.
  • Remove the chicken from the pan (cover and keep it warm) and raise heat to medium. Reduce the liquid by 25%--this should take 3-5 minutes once it begins to boil.
  • Slowly stir in the cream. Add the reserved 1 tsp of spice mix to the sauce.
  • Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thickened and coats the back of a spoon--about 10-15 minutes
  • Add the chicken back to the pan and heat through.
