Ingredients
1 tablespoon oil
4 (6 ounce) bone-in, skin on chicken thighs
salt and pepper to taste
1 onion, diced
20 cloves garlic, peeled
2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dry thyme)
2 tablespoons flour
1 cups chicken broth
½ cup asiago cheese (or parmesan), grated
salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Heat the oil in a large sauce pan over medium-high heat, add the chicken (seasoned with salt and pepper) and brown, abut 3-5 minutes per side, before setting aside.
Add the onion and garlic and saute until the onions are tender and the everything is lightly browned, about 3-5 minutes.
Sprinkle in the thyme and flour and cook for a minute.
Add the broth and deglaze the pan by scraping the brown bits off of the bottom of the pan with a spoon while the broth is sizzling when added.
Mix the asiago into the sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Add the chicken, cover (with a lid or foil) and roast in a preheated 400F/200C oven for 15 minutes OR turn the heat down to medium-low and simmer on the stove top for 15 minutes.
If you can influence in the long-term by leaving behind a legacy, to me, that’s real power.

Maybe the way we feel isn’t supposed to be logical, to be rational. Maybe it’s okay to be unsure and scared. Maybe we lose so we learn to let go. And maybe we leave in order to grow, to blossom in to who we’re meant to be. Maybe some things aren’t supposed to make sense. Maybe you have to take risks to get what you deserve. Maybe we shouldn’t underestimate our potential. Maybe we shouldn’t set limitations or boundaries. Maybe life is divine chaos. Maybe it’s okay to love ourselves. Maybe we don’t need everything we want. Maybe we shouldn’t fear the unknown, but embrace it. Learn from it. maybe someone can exceed your expectations. maybe we can control our destinies after all. maybe we have to fight for what we believe in. maybe, just maybe, we should stop second guessing ourselves and just jump in.
