Lemon Marry Me Chicken

The original Marry Me Chicken gets a lemon treatment — zest and juice cut through the cream sauce and make the whole thing taste lighter than it has any right to. Sun-dried tomatoes, parmesan, garlic, a splash of white wine, fresh thyme. One skillet, one sauce, chicken thighs that stay juicy because they finish in the oven. Serve it over pasta, rice, or just with bread to drag through the sauce.
