About this skillet chicken thigh recipe
Boneless, skinless, and seasoned chicken thighs are seared in a skillet until golden brown on all sides, then submerged in a rich and flavorful sweet and tangy pomegranate sauce with softened onions and spices. The Skillet Chicken with Pomegranate Molasses Sauce is topped with fresh parsley, beautiful pomegranate arils, and zesty slices of lemon!  This winner-winner chicken dinner is sure to become your new obsession! The simple addition of pomegranate molasses instantly produces a sweet and sour flavor in the cook-in sauce, infiltrating every inch of the tender chicken thighs. 
Serve your pomegranate chicken over jasmine rice, with mashed potatoes, or alongside roasted vegetables!
