Ingredients
I love a dinner recipe that can be made with stuff I already have in the house. Chicken thighs are a staple in my freezer because they are affordable and versatile. Add in some frozen peas, aromatics like onion and garlic and a dollop of sour cream and you have a delicious, easy meal in minutes.
Chicken thighs. I used bone-in thighs but boneless will also work. Onion. Shallot can be substituted. Garlic. Frozen peas. Chicken stock. Sour cream. Lemon zest & juice. Chilli flakes. Thyme. Salt and pepper.

Can I use fresh peas for this recipe?
Yes, you can. Use fresh shelled peas and cook for 8-10 minutes. Fresh peas can be much starchier than frozen peas (frozen peas are blanched before freezing) and require longer cooking.
