Part 6/7:
Once the chicken is cooked to perfection (ideally 200° internal temperature), it’s important to consider the sauce’s consistency before serving. If a thicker sauce is desired, reduce it further on the stovetop. To achieve richness, whisk in cold butter until emulsified, enriching the sauce's flavor without overwhelming it.
Plating and Enjoyment
Serve the chicken thighs on a platter, pouring the luxurious sauce generously on top. You can garnish with bay leaves and parsley for an appealing visual touch. This dish is versatile enough to enjoy over pasta, with bread, or alongside creamy polenta, offering guests an exquisite dining experience that is both homely and upscale.
