Beer-Braised Chicken Thigh

A flavorful and tender chicken thigh slow-cooked in beer with aromatic herbs and a touch of garlic. This dish delivers rich, deep flavors perfect for a comforting main course.

Steps

1. Season the chicken thigh with salt, pepper, and dried thyme. 2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and brown the chicken skin-side down until golden, about 5 minutes. 3. Flip the chicken, add minced garlic and sliced onion to the pan, and cook for 2 minutes. 4. Pour in the beer and bring to a simmer. 5. Cover the skillet and reduce heat to low, cooking for 25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and tender. 6. Remove the lid and cook for an additional 5 minutes to reduce the sauce slightly. 7. Serve hot with the beer-infused sauce spooned over the chicken.
