[Culinary] How To Make Pan Fried Chicken And Creamy Mashed Potatoes

INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 lb. white potatoes
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 c. low-fat sour cream
8 small chicken thighs
4 clove garlic
1 Red Onion
8 sprig fresh thyme
1 tbsp. olive oil

PREP TIME: 0 hours 15 mins
TOTAL TIME: 0 hours 30 mins

DIRECTIONS

1. Place the potatoes in a large saucepan; cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, add 2 teaspoons salt, reduce heat, and simmer until tender, 15 to 18 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water; drain the potatoes and return to the pot. Mash with the sour cream and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, adding some cooking water if the potatoes seem dry.

2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss the chicken, garlic, onion, and thyme with the oil and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium heat until hot, about 2 minutes.

3. Remove the chicken from the bowl and place in the skillet, skin-side down. Spoon the onion-garlic mixture over and around the chicken. Cook, turning the onions occasionally, for 10 minutes.

4. Turn the chicken; stir the onions and garlic. Cook until the chicken is cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes more. Serve with the mashed potatoes.
