SEARED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH PLUM GLAZE



Seared Chicken Thighs With Plum Glaze image

This came from Fresh Market. Once a week they have cooking presentations that they do and you get to sample what they cooked. This one Sat. was this and it was so delicious. Putting recipe here so I don't lose it. The wine that they used was called Diseno Malbec but I am sure any red would work. For the chutney they used the brand Virginia Chutney Company. Serve over garlic mashed potatoes or wild rice.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken thighs: Look for bone-in, skin-on thighs for the best flavor and texture. If you prefer boneless, skinless thighs, be sure to cook them over medium heat to prevent them from drying out.
  • Pat the chicken thighs dry: This will help the skin crisp up and prevent the chicken from steaming.
  • Season the chicken thighs liberally: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. Paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder are all good choices.
  • Sear the chicken thighs over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the chicken while keeping the inside moist.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the chicken thighs until they are cooked through: This will take about 15-20 minutes, depending on the size of the thighs.
  • Make the plum glaze while the chicken thighs are cooking: This will give the glaze time to thicken and develop its flavor.
  • Brush the plum glaze on the chicken thighs during the last few minutes of cooking: This will help to caramelize the glaze and give the chicken a beautiful shine.
  • Serve the chicken thighs immediately with your favorite sides: Mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and rice are all good choices.

Conclusion:

Seared chicken thighs with plum glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the plum glaze adds a sweet and tangy flavor that is sure to please everyone at the table. With just a few simple ingredients and steps, you can create this restaurant-quality dish in your own home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give this recipe a try!
