Ingredients

  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 tbsp fresh tarragon, chopped
  • ½ cup sour cream or crème fraîche
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • 12 oz potato wedges, precut or fresh
  • 8 oz fresh broccoli florets
  • 8 oz carrots, cut into sticks, plus lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. 1

    Pat chicken thighs dry. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.

  3. 3

    Sear chicken 4 minutes per side without moving until golden. Transfer to a plate.

  4. 4

    Pour wine into the skillet, scraping up browned bits. Add broth and bring to a simmer, ~1 minute.

    Stir in tarragon and sour cream until smooth. Return chicken to the pan and simmer until cooked through, 4–5 minutes.

  6. 6

    While the sauce finishes, steam broccoli and carrots for 4 minutes. Serve chicken with sauce, roasted potato wedges, steamed vegetables, and lemon wedges.
