Easy Rosemary Roasted Tomato Chicken Thighs

So like any Portuguese woman would tell you, this recipe is “very easy”… but this time it actually is. I make up all my recipes on the spot with whatever it is that inspires me! The first time I made this recipe was in the oven in a glass pyrex, and had been a bit more complex than this past time, and the flavor was the same even with my simplified method… even better!

First off, what you have to know is that I had made this at my Fiance and I’s house (very limited cooking appliances. You’ll come to understand why sooner or later). So all I had was an electric skillet..that’s it!

What you’ll need:

  • Kraft’s Sundried Tomato & Oregano dressing
  • Chicken thighs ( I used 6 thighs for the 2 of us)
  • Grape tomatoes
  • A whole head of garlic
  • 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary

Directions:

  1. Spread about 2-3 Tbs of the dressing on the bottom of the skillet.
  2. Place the thighs in the skillet making sure to swirl it around in the dressing so that the bottoms are well coated.
  3. Smash (not chop or dice, just one quick hit with the ball of your hand) every clove that is in the head of garlic (so to release all the flavor from it) and evenly distribute it in the skillet.
  4. Next off, drop in the cherry tomatoes to your desired preferences ( I love tomatoes so I put in the whole container).
  5. Peel the rosemary leaves off of both sprigs and sprinkle it over everything.
  6. Lastly, cover all of the ingredients in the skillet with enough dressing so as to ensure all the chicken is covered.
  7. Cover the skillet, set the skillet to 450F and let it cook for about 20 mins while flipping the chicken in between to make sure both sides are getting a nice color on them.
  8. I then lowered the temperature to 250F for another 10-15 mins to make sure the chicken would be tender (but to be honest chicken thighs are the most foolproof to cook of the poultry family).

To serve, I put the thighs on a plate and spooned all the sauce, garlic and tomatoes on top.

And Voila! An easy recipe idea for hump-day! Also, if you do decide to try it; tag me on instagram @brbd10 & hashtag #beingbrittney.
