Easy Chicken Thighs in Creamy Sauce Recipe

Begin by placing the chicken thigh fillets in a bowl. Coat them well with ketchup, grainy mustard, honey, and sriracha. Season with salt and allow them to marinate for at least 30 minutes. This step is crucial for enhancing the flavor of the chicken.

Heat a skillet over high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken thighs to the pan. Cook until they turn a beautiful golden color. Do not cook them all the way through yet; you will finish cooking them later in the creamy sauce. Once done, remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the chopped mushrooms and diced onion. Sauté until they are tender and slightly caramelized. This will add a lovely richness to the dish. Next, add the cherry tomatoes, stirring them in until they soften. Season with salt and any other spices you prefer.

Add the cream and a ladle of boiling water to the skillet with the vegetables. Stir well to combine. Adjust the consistency of the sauce by adding more cream or water as needed. It should be able to nearly cover the chicken.

Carefully place the previously cooked chicken back into the skillet, ensuring it is mostly submerged in the creamy sauce. Simmer on medium heat until the sauce thickens and the chicken is fully cooked. This should take about 10-15 minutes depending on the size of your chicken pieces.

Once everything is cooked through and the sauce has reached a lovely creamy consistency, serve it hot with your choice of mashed potatoes or a side salad. This dish is sure to delight your family at dinner time! Enjoy your delicious meal!
