Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1 1/2" pieces

Directions
Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet to medium-high on the stovetop. Add onion and cook for 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and cook for one more minute. Add chicken pieces; season with salt and pepper. Cook for 7-8 minutes, turning the pieces with kitchen tongs to brown all sides. Reduce heat to medium and add sherry, making sure to scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook for 1-2 minutes. Add cream and stir gently. Cook for 10-15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Turn off heat, stir in parsley and serve immediately.
