How to Cook Braised Apple Cider Chicken Thighs

STEP 1.Season thighs with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven. Sear the chicken skin-side down until golden and crispy — about 5-6 minutes. Flip and cook 2 more minutes. Remove and set aside.

STEP 1.In the same pan, add sliced onion and apples. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft. Stir in garlic and cook another minute.

STEP 2.Pour in apple cider to deglaze the pan. Scrape up those flavorful brown bits. Stir in chicken broth and mustard. Add thyme.

STEP 3.Nestle the chicken back in, skin-side up. Bring to a simmer, cover, and let it braise on low for 25-30 minutes. Uncover the last 5 mins for a slightly thicker sauce.

STEP 4.Spoon over mashed potatoes, rice, or anything starchy and comforting. Garnish with extra thyme if you’re feeling fancy.
