Stove Top Chicken + Salad and Dressing

Stop Top Chicken + Salad and Dressing

1.
Gather all the ingredients: chicken thighs, butter, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, paprika, salt, olive oil, onion, spring mix salad, and white wine. For this recipe, I modified some of the steps and ingredients to accommodate what I had available. 

 2. Cover the chicken thighs with all of the seasonings. I eyeballed it, since I typically know how much seasoning I enjoy.


3. Dice the onion that will be used in the pan and the salad.


4. Put oil in (just enough to cover pan) and place seasoned chicken in. Cook for about 5 minutes and then flip to cook for 6 minutes. Add butter and half of diced onions, then cook for about 30 seconds. Then, add 1/2 cup white wine and scrape/mix everything together. After cooking for one more minute. Remove chicken from pan.


5 Mix together 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar. Add 1/2 teaspoon honey and a pinch salt. Pour over spring mix salad and add rest of diced onions. Enjoy!


In this recipe, I incorporated dicing by adding onions into the pan and the salad. I think that it worked well for the salad, however they were the substitution in the pan for garlic. I did not have garlic, and I think that could have added better flavor. Nonetheless, I really enjoyed that the chicken was very juicy on the inside and crisp with seasoning on the outside. I think the only other thing I would change is that I could have added more ingredients to the dressing since it tasted a little plain.
