Making Creamy Garlic Herb Cajun Chicken Thighs is simple. Follow these steps to achieve a dish that is both flavorful and impressive:

1. Season the Chicken: Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Rub Cajun seasoning all over the chicken thighs. Season with salt and pepper.
2. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
3. Sear the Chicken: Place the chicken thighs skin-side down in the skillet. Sear for about 5-7 minutes until the skin is golden brown and crispy. Flip and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
4. Sauté the Garlic: In the same skillet, add minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
5. Add Liquid Ingredients: Pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer. Scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet for added flavor.
6. Stir in Cream: Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir in the heavy cream. Allow it to simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
7. Return the Chicken: Add the chicken thighs back into the skillet, skin-side up. Cover and let simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
8. Add Herbs: Stir in chopped parsley and thyme. Adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes if desired.
9. Serve: Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

Following these simple steps will yield a dish that is not only delicious but also visually appealing, thanks to the vibrant colors of the herbs and spices!
