I've taken a break from blogging lately. Not because of my so called busy life, just cause I haven't really felt like being on the computer after work. Anyway- I'm back on track and excited about the new receipes I'll be making in the next few weeks. Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Salt & pepper
1 small onion, thinly sliced
5 garlic cloves
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1 cup dry white wine
3 cups chicken stock or broth
3 medium to small red bliss potatoes, cut in half and then thinly sliced
1 cup frozen peas
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
Crusty bread
Preheat a large skillet or wide soup pot over medium-high heat and add the EVOO. Season the chicken thighs liberally with salt & pepper. Add the chicken in the skillet and brown on both sides for 3 minutes. Scoot the browned thights to the edges of thepan, making some space in the center of the skillet. Add the onions, garlic, thyme, salt & pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes.
Add the wine and chicken stock, turn the heat up to high, and bring the mixture up to a simmer. Add the potatoes and stir everything together. Cover the pan with a lid or a piece of aluminium foil and simmer for 10 minutes.
Remove the lid and continue to cook for another 5 minutes. Add the peas, lemon juice, lemon zest, and parsley, and cook for 1 more minute to just head the peas through. Serve with crusty bread.

Yay--glad to see you back. I can't wait to try the meatloaf!!
The chicken sounds yummy. Also, do you make your polenta or buy it? I've only attempted a dish with it once (store bought) and it has been years--it didn't turn out that great.
Sounds like a very tasty week!
I agree with Candi the chicken sounds delicious..thanks for the blog visit.and Have a great week..
Everything looks yummy. I'm going to have to try the Thick Thighs.
