Method

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut potatoes⁴ into wedges, toss with ½ tbsp oil, half the salt, and thyme.

3. Season chicken¹ thighs with salt and pepper, cut into large chunks.

4. Sear chicken¹ in the remaining oil over medium-high heat for 5–6 minutes until golden brown.

5. Add sliced onion⁵, minced garlic⁶, and mushrooms; cook for 6–7 minutes until mushrooms soften and brown slightly.

6. Pour in cream³, simmer for 4–5 minutes until sauce thickens and chicken¹ is fully cooked (white meat, clear juices). Serve with potatoes⁴.
