Ingredients You’ll Need
For the Chicken:
- 🍗 4 chicken thighs (bone-in or boneless)
- 🧈 100 grams butter
- 🧄 4 garlic cloves, chopped
- 🌿 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (parsley or thyme)
- 🧂 Salt & pepper to taste
For the Fries:
- 🥔 4 large potatoes
- 🛢️ Olive oil for frying
- 🧂 Salt to season
Let’s Get Cooking!
Step 1: Prep the Potatoes
Peel your potatoes and slice them into classic fry-sized strips. Rinse well under cold water to remove excess starch, then pat dry with a clean kitchen towel—this step helps them crisp up beautifully.
Step 2: Fry Until Golden
Heat olive oil in a deep skillet or fryer over medium-high heat. Work in batches to avoid crowding, and fry your potatoes until golden and crispy (about 5–7 minutes). Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt.
Step 3: Sizzle the Chicken
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chicken thighs, season with salt and pepper, and cook until golden and cooked through—around 5–7 minutes per side depending on thickness.
Step 4: Infuse the Flavor
Once the chicken is nearly done, stir in the chopped garlic and herbs. Let everything cook together for 2–3 more minutes, spooning the aromatic butter over the chicken as it finishes.
Step 5: Plate & Serve
Place the buttery chicken on a plate, drizzle with the herbed garlic sauce, and pile on those crispy fries.
Tips & Twists
- A fresh squeeze of lemon juice over the chicken adds brightness.
- Try rosemary or oregano instead of thyme for a new flavor profile.
- Toss the fries in a pinch of garlic powder and paprika for extra flair.
