Browning the Chicken Thighs. Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large cast iron pan (or oven proof skillet), over medium-high heat, until shimmering. Place the chicken thighs, skin side down, and brown for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown. Remove from heat and reserve.

Prepare the milk. While the chicken thighs are browning, combine the milk, chicken bouillon and one can of corn (drained) in the jar of a blender. Blend until smooth. Reserve.

Making the Creamed Corn. After you've removed the chicken thighs, lower the heat to medium and remove all but 1 tablespoon of the chicken fat. Add the butter and sauté the onion and garlic until fragrant and softened. Then, add the flour and stir, letting it cook slightly to get rid of that raw flour taste.

Slowly pour the reserved milk corn mixture into the pan, stirring constantly, until thickened. Add the heavy cream, remaining corn, a pinch of salt and pepper, and parmesan cheese, mixing well. Taste for seasoning and adjust salt and pepper, if necessary. Remove from heat.

Finishing in the oven. Return the chicken thighs to the pan, nesting them in the creamed corn. Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the creamed corn is hot and bubbly and the chicken is crispy and cooked through. You can pop the pan under the broiler for the chicken to get extra crispy, if you wish.
