Ingredients

Roasted Red Pepper Sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and heat a large skillet to medium high heat.
  • Add the thighs to a large mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper. 
  • Add coconut oil to the hot skillet and lay the thighs in the skillet. Cook 4-5 minutes on each side.
  • While the chicken is cooking, make the sauce. Add the roasted red peppers, garlic cloves and olive oil to a blender and pulse until pureed. 
  • Add heavy cream to the sauce and blend once more.
  • Once thighs have cooked through most of the way, remove from heat and pour the sauce over the thighs. If desired, flip the thighs over to fully coat them.
  • Crumble goat cheese on top of the thighs and place in the oven for 10-12 minutes.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately!
  • Best stored in an air tight container in the fridge up to 5 days.
