SKILLET CHICKEN AND POTATOES

Steps:

• First, prepare chicken thighs by mixing together all of the spices. Then, generously rub each chicken thigh with the chicken seasoning making sure to coat both sides. Set aside.
• Next, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium/high heat. When the olive oil is fragrant, add the minced garlic. Let sizzle for one minute and then add chicken thighs.
• Add chicken thighs to the pan, skin-side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes. Then, flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Add another tablespoon of olive oil and another tablespoon of minced garlic to the same pan and then add the potatoes, onions, salt, and pepper. Saute for 4 minutes. Add in the red pepper and continue cooking for another 4 minutes.
• Once the potatoes are al dente (almost all the way cooked), add the balsamic vinegar and chicken broth and use a wooden utensil to scrape the brown bits from the bottom. Then, place the chicken breast on top of the veggies and then cover. Let cook over medium/high for 7-8 minutes or until the chicken thighs reach an internal temperature of 160ºF.
• Preheat your broiler. Then, place pads of butter on top of chicken thighs and then broil on high for 1-3 minutes or until the butter melts and the chicken browns. Remove from oven, let sit for 5 minutes and enjoy. Top with a balsamic reduction and more salt and pepper.
