How to Make Figged Up Chicken Thighs A1
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Season 1.5 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken thighs well on both sides (about 3-4 minutes per side).
- Remove chicken from skillet. Set aside.
- Drain all but 1 tbsp of oil from the skillet.
- Add 2 cloves minced garlic and 2 shallots, finely chopped, and sauté until fragrant (about 2 minutes).
- Add 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes.
- Stir in 2 tbsp brown sugar and 4 oz fresh figs, quartered. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Pour in 1/2 cup Madeira wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Add 1 cup chicken broth, 1 tbsp chicken stock concentrate, and 1 tbsp A1 Steak Sauce. Bring to a simmer.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, simmer uncovered for 10 minutes to reduce the sauce slightly.
- Stir in 1 sprig fresh rosemary, 1 tsp dried oregano, and 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes.
- Return chicken thighs to the skillet, turning to coat in the sauce.
- Cover the skillet and transfer to the preheated oven. Braise for 40 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and tender.
- Remove skillet from oven. Remove chicken to a serving platter and keep warm.
- Reduce heat to low. Add 4 oz crumbled goat cheese to the sauce, whisking constantly until melted and smooth. (Alternatively, use an immersion blender.)
- Spoon the sauce generously over the chicken.
- Garnish with 2 oz chopped fresh figs and 1/2 cup sliced cherry tomatoes.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
