Steps

1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. 2. Season the chicken thigh with salt, pepper, and paprika. Add it to the skillet, skin side down, and sear until golden brown (about 5 minutes). 3. Flip the chicken and add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant. 4. Pour in the beer and chicken broth, and add fresh thyme. Bring to a simmer. 5. Cover and reduce heat to low. Let it braise for about 25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender. 6. Remove the chicken and let it rest. Increase heat to reduce the sauce for a few minutes if desired. 7. Serve the chicken with the sauce drizzled on top.
