Ingredients
  • 4 pieces bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 6 oz each)
  • 1 head green cabbage, thinly shredded
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper
Instructions
1

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat chicken thighs dry and season with salt, pepper, and thyme.

2

Sear chicken thighs skin-side down in a hot ovenproof pan without added oil, 5–6 minutes, to render some fat and crisp skin. Flip and transfer to oven.

3

Roast chicken 18–22 minutes until internal temp reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove and tent to rest.

4

While chicken roasts, place shredded cabbage and garlic in a large skillet with a splash of water, cover and braise 8–10 minutes until tender, adding lemon wedges and pan drippings from the chicken for flavor.

5

Serve chicken thighs over braised cabbage with a squeeze of lemon.
