Potatoes, carrots, garlic and rosemary cooked in the same pot with chicken create a flavorful, filling dish. Chicken thighs don&#8217;t dry out as quickly as chicken breasts, especially when you cook them with the skin on, ensuring tender, fall-off-the-bone meat. By searing the meat, you create <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-fond\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-fond\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">fond<\/a>, which means lots of flavor.

Leaving the skin on creates more flavor, but you can also use skinless thighs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Salt and pepper:<\/strong> A bit of salt and pepper is all you need to season chicken thighs in a Dutch oven.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Olive oil:<\/strong> Olive oil prevents the chicken and vegetables from sticking to the Dutch oven and helps everything cook up golden and crisp.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vegetables:<\/strong> A combination of red potatoes, carrots and onions adds flavor and moisture to the chicken and functions as a simple, hearty side dish. Cut the potatoes into same-size cubes for more even cooking.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Garlic:<\/strong> Garlic flavors and perfumes the chicken and vegetables. If you&#8217;re a garlic lover, feel free to add a few extra cloves.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rosemary:<\/strong> Rosemary and chicken go together like peanut butter and jelly. For more flavor, you can pair the wonderful, woodsy herb with fresh thyme, sage or oregano.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Sear the chicken<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2094107\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Dutch-Oven-Chicken-Thighs_TOHD24_178072_JonathanMelendez_01.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Seasoned chicken thighs browning in a red dutch oven.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Jonathan Melendez for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F.

Once cooked, store Dutch oven chicken thighs and the vegetables in the freezer for up to three months.

Make sure you let the oil preheat in the pan for a few minutes before adding the chicken. It&#8217;s also possible you didn&#8217;t add enough oil to the pan. If you&#8217;ve already started cooking when you discover these issues, increase the heat and add an extra splash of oil to the pot. Let the chicken sit for another minute or so to see if it will release naturally before trying to force it up.<\/p>\n<p>When making chicken thighs in a Dutch oven, it&#8217;s also important to let the thighs sit undisturbed for at least five minutes before trying to flip them. If you try to flip them earlier, the fat under the chicken skin won&#8217;t have a chance to render properly, causing the skin to stick.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you keep Dutch oven chicken thighs juicy?<\/h3>\n<p>Adding a little liquid to the bottom of the Dutch oven can also help keep chicken thighs extra moist and juicy. We recommend adding 1\/2 cup cooking liquid before putting the chicken thighs in the Dutch oven. You can flavor the chicken with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-chicken-broth\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-chicken-broth\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">chicken broth<\/a>, lemon juice, beer, wine or fruit juice.<\/p>\n<h3>What can you serve with Dutch oven chicken thigh recipes?<\/h3>\n<p>Serve Dutch oven chicken thigh recipes with an extra serving of veggies.
