Ingredients
  

  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • 1 ½ tsp dried oregano, divided
  • 1 tsp salt, divided
  • ½ tsp freshly cracked black pepper, divided
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 1.3 lbs.)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, combine the paprika, dried thyme, garlic powder, 1 tsp dried oregano, ¾ tsp salt, and ¼ tsp black pepper.
  • Blot the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel, then season both sides liberally with the seasoning blend.
  • Heat the olive oil and butter in a large deep skillet over medium heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the chicken and cook on each side until golden brown and cooked through (about 5 minutes per side). Remove the chicken from the skillet and transfer to a clean plate. Cover with aluminum foil to keep warm.
  • In the same skillet, add the diced onion, diced bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until onions are translucent.
