About This Recipe

I love a good chicken thigh recipe. Especially if it has a lot of garlic and butter, how can you possibly go wrong? Not only does this pack a lot of flavor both with the butter, garlic, and chicken thighs the thyme, rosemary, parsley, and lemon help take these chicken thighs to the next level. This chicken thigh recipe also fits very well into a keto diet as well as being gluten free so you get two other things wrapped into one delicious package.

Hints & Tips

While I enjoyed these chicken thighs thoroughly one of the things I will try a little different next time will be to cook down some of the excess juices from the onions. This will help caramelize them and help give your chicken thighs a little more crispness. If you wanted to make this a little healthier you can always swap out the chicken thighs for chicken breast or even use pork chops instead, so many wonderful choices we can make with this. And the last thing I am going to do next time I make these chicken thighs is sprinkle a parmesan cheese blend over the top.
