So why not combine the two? Served with pan seared and shatteringly crispy skinned chicken thighs, this is the sort of food that makes you want to sink into the sofa with a glass of red wine and watch rom coms on repeat. Our attitude to cream (and garlic) is go big or go home, both of which apply to this dish,
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Take chicken thighs from fridge and season liberally with salt.
Heat olive oil in skillet and fry the chicken thighs on the thin side until golden brown.
Add the butter and baste the chicken thighs with the thyme then remove them from the pan. Add the garlic (keep the skins on!).
Add the double cream and parmesan and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring to incorporate the cheese.
Place the chicken thighs on top and place the dish in the oven for the thighs to cook through - roughly 40 minutes.
Serve scattered with chopped chives and parsley with chips or mashed potatoes
