– 4 chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 onion, sliced
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 tablespoon butter
– Salt and black pepper to taste
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 2 cups fresh spinach
– 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
– 1 tablespoon lemon juice
1. In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium-high heat.
2. Season the chicken thighs with salt, black pepper, and paprika on both sides.
3. Add the chicken thighs to the skillet, skin-side down. Sear for about 5-7 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
4. Flip the chicken thighs and add the sliced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for another 5 minutes until the chicken is browned on the other side and the onion is soft.
5. Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet, stirring them in with the chicken and onions. Cover and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
6. Stir in the fresh spinach and lemon juice, cooking for 1-2 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
7. Remove from heat and serve hot, spooning the juices and vegetables over the chicken thighs. Enjoy your Mediterranean feast!
