- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cracked pepper
- 3/4 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- For The Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 8 ounces brown mushrooms, sliced

- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/2 – 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 – 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Season chicken thighs with onion powder, garlic powder, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, and paprika.
- Place chicken thighs in skillet, leaving space between each piece. Cook for about 5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet.
- In the same skillet, melt butter and add sliced mushrooms. Cook until softened and golden brown.
- Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add white wine or chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to release the flavorful bits.
- Simmer sauce for a few minutes until slightly thickened.
- Return chicken thighs to the skillet, nestling them into the mushroom sauce. Let simmer for a couple of minutes.
- Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm.
Notes
- Do not overcrowd the skillet to prevent steaming instead of browning.
- Marinate chicken for a few hours for enhanced flavor.
- Fresh mushrooms are ideal to prevent excess water release.
- Add a splash of cream for a richer sauce or a hint of lemon juice for a tang.
