• Salt, to taste
• Black pepper, to taste
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 5 fluid ounces orange soda
• 1 onion, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1 tablespoon wheat flour

• 7 ounces heavy cream

Instructions:

1. In a large pan, melt 1.5 ounces of butter over medium heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and stir to mix.

   Cover the pan and let the chicken cook for 15 minutes on a medium-low flame.
   Add Orange Soda:
2. Pour 5 fluid ounces of orange soda over the chicken. Turn the thighs occasionally to ensure they’re fully coated with the mixture. Cook for an additional 8 minutes, then remove the chicken and set aside.

   Stir in a tablespoon of wheat flour, ensuring it’s well mixed with the onion and garlic.
   Gradually pour in 5 fluid ounces of chicken broth, stirring continuously until the mixture starts to thicken.
   Add 7 ounces of heavy cream, stirring well to combine. Let the sauce simmer for a few minutes until it reaches a creamy consistency.
   Final Touches:
4. Return the chicken to the pan, coating it generously with the sauce. Cover and let it cook for another 8 minutes, ensuring the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the flavors are well blended.
