Ingredients
- (6) chicken thighs
- (1/2 teaspoon) garlic powder

- (1/2 teaspoon) paprika
- Kosher salt and black pepper
- (2 tablespoons) olive oil
- (1 tablespoon) butter

- (1 tablespoon) fresh lemon juice
- (2) sprigs fresh thyme
- (1/4 teaspoon) crushed red pepper flakes
- (1/3 cup) heavy cream

Directions
- Use a paper towel to pat the chicken thighs dry.
- In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub the seasoning mixture all over the chicken thighs, on both sides.
- Heat a large cast iron to medium heat and add the olive oil.
- Place chicken thighs skin side down in the hot skillet and cook, until skin is crispy about 5 minutes, flip chicken thighs and cook for another 8 to 10 minutes or until internal temp is 165 degrees. Transfer chicken to a plate.
- Add the butter, shallot, and garlic to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute. Stir in the chicken broth, lemon juice, thyme, and red pepper flakes. Reduce heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until sauce thickens up a bit.
- Place the chicken back in the pan with the sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve the chicken warm with the sauce.
