White Wine Chicken with Carrots

This quick dinner features chicken thighs and carrots coated in a buttery wine and caper sauce.

How to Make It

  1. Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a very large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken thighs; cook, turning halfway through, until browned, about 8 minutes. Remove from skillet and keep warm.

  2. Add garlic and wine to skillet, then use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from bottom of pot. Cook, stirring, until liquid is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. In a small bowl, whisk together chicken stock and cornstarch. Add stock mixture to skillet; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1 minute.

  3. Add chicken and lemon juice to the skillet. Cook, covered, 4 minutes. Add carrots and cook, covered, until carrots are tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of chicken registers 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 3 minutes.

  4. Gently stir capers and butter into sauce. Serve chicken and carrots with pan sauce and garnish with Parmesan.
