To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4 bone-in chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 cup chopped shallots
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, dried rosemary, and paprika. Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil and then sprinkle the spice mixture over them. Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the shallot gravy. In a saucepan, sauté the chopped shallots in 2 tablespoons of olive oil until they are soft and translucent. Add the flour and stir until it is well combined. Slowly pour in the chicken broth while whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 10-15 minutes or until the gravy has thickened. Stir in the heavy cream and continue to simmer for another 5 minutes.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve the chicken with the shallot gravy on top.
