A familiar flavor pairing takes a savory turn in these Sour Cream & Onion Chicken Thighs, inspired by the recipe from @studs_and_leftovers. French Cuffs Seasoning brings onion-forward depth to the chicken and a creamy pan sauce, while pickled red onions add a bright contrast. Serve it over wild rice to catch every spoonful.
Here's what you'll need:
Ingredients
For the Chicken
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1 tbsp French Cuffs Seasoning
For the Sauce
- ½ cup chicken broth
- ½ tsp cornstarch
- ½ tbsp French Cuffs Seasoning
- 2–3 oz cream cheese
- 2–3 oz sour cream
For Serving
- Wild rice, to taste
- Pickled red onions, to taste
Directions
- Season the chicken: Lightly grease your slow cooker and arrange the chicken thighs inside. Season evenly with 1 tablespoon of French Cuffs Seasoning.
- Add the broth mixture: Whisk together the chicken broth, ½ tablespoon of French Cuffs Seasoning, and cornstarch until smooth. Pour directly over the chicken.
- Slow cook: Cover and cook on HIGH for 3 hours.
- Make the creamy sauce: Remove the chicken and set aside. Whisk the cream cheese and sour cream into the cooking juices until combined, then pass the sauce through a fine-mesh strainer to remove any remaining clumps.
- Plate and serve: Serve the chicken over wild rice, top with pickled red onions, and spoon the creamy sauce generously over everything.

Enjoy!
